2459.0. "Window Sill Cat Shelf Wanted" by WJO::COULOURAS () Fri May 12 1989 16:12

    Hi,
    
    A few weeks ago I saw a shelf that attaches to a window sill in
    the same way that those baby chairs attach to tables. It was covered
    with carpeting and was used for cats to sit on.
    
    I cannot remember where I saw this advertised and I have looked
    everywhere. It may even have been in a Lillian Vernon catalogue.
    
    I just got a little kitten last week and would like to have one
    of these for her.
    
    Does anyone out there know where I can get one?
    
    Thanks for the help.

    	What a neat idea!!  Our two oldest were used to being able
    	to sit on a window sill as our former apartment was in an
    	old house...but we're in a fairly new building now that has
    	no window sills....so unless the window is open, they can't
    	peek outside.
    
    
2459.3check the larger pet storesVAXWRK::SKALTSISDebFri May 12 1989 17:185
    I've seen them in all of the larger pet stores around here (Boston Pet
    Supply, Debby's Pet Land, Dr. Pet), and are a lot cheaper in the stores
    than the catalogues.

    Hi,
    
    I got one of the window perches from "Harriet Carter", a mail order
    everything type catalog.  It cost me $7.98 plus S&H.  I will bring
    in the info for you to order if you would like.  Jasper just LOVES
    his windon perch in my bedroom.  The window is 3 stories off the
    ground so he's at high tree level with all the birds.  He had no
    trouble adapting to it.  He just lounges
    there as often as he likes.  He even uses it as a great napping
    area (guess he gets tired of hoping to catch a bird).  I leave the
    window open at night now and he hops up EARLY am (about 5:00) to
    bird watch.  He used to try and open the shade and the window when
    I kept it closed.  It's much quieter to leave the window open!!
    
    It was the best investment I ever made, as he used to be soooo
    uncomfortable perching on the thin sill.

    Does anyone know of a UK supplier.  We have sash windows which just
    have a ledge running round them, so the cats sit on top of the nearest
    available piece of furniture and I'm fed up with washing paw prints
    off the top of the (white) TV casing :-)
    
    Thanks in advance.

    A good product for getting grubby paw prints off of painted
    window sills is Soft Scrub.
