Cat Condos - Day 1

Now that the dangerous trees have been downed, I'm cleaning up the area, getting ready for making hubby's cat condos. Getting rid of all the trash branches will take months, as I sort through the mess rescuing wood for other projects. The litter will move into the bio trash pits, to eventually become soil for another garden area. 

The larger branches will be recycled into posts and pieces to use for cat jungle gyms. Some will most likely be used in my woodcraft furniture projects. The trunks will get milled into slabs, but that's another adventure. 

One fairly level spot has been cleared, so the first cat condo has been started. This one is going to be a rather simple design. 8' by 8' and straight forward -- a box with a shed roof. Nothing fancy. A plywood floor, plywood wall windbreak all around, metal roof. I'm using chicken wire for fencing, something that young kittens can't squeeze through. 

Basic floor and frame done.,
