CHAT 2016-2025
After our Blogging Ourselves Silly blog we thought it would be nice to share some of the older blogs that we scrolled through - if you spot any stray three dot ellipsis or smaller text formatting please let us know & you will receive a handsome reward.
Our Potty CHAT blog reminded us of the Littaball design study that we produced after making our own DIY cat toilet

Koishi has given her approval for our products so Arata, Koishi’s pet parent, is all set to launch Hicat® Japan today
We recently contributed to a Redfin Blog & although the feature is aimed at their North American readership there are some links that would be of interest to anyone who resides with a feline family member
This Tomcat 3 is the oldest unit that we know of & at nearly 13 years it currently holds the record for the longest serving Hicat® whilst still looking almost new

Some piccies of the Polecat recently donated to Blue Cross volunteer Helen being put through it’s paces by some new arrivals.
We received an enquiry recently accompanied by a drawing illustrating our products that make our diagrams look a little sad & lacklustre by comparison
We've recently been contacted by Jennifer, a cat owner based in the US, who has adopted a declawed cat called Salomé & asked if we know of other cats with their front claws removed safely climbing our units.
We've just received a wonderful note from Donatella at the L’Associazione Telefono Difesa Animali to say thank you for the Tomcat 4 that we donated last month...the charity's Facebook page says it all.
We've got eight years of blogging to catch up with so here's another piece of Hicat® history.
Workshop collections are rare but customers picking up their Hicat® in a London taxi are even rarer so here's Nicholas picking up his Tomcat 3 in his black cab.
As seen on Instagram a 500mm diameter tube has come into our possession so we are in the process of fabricating a 2XL SixToo™
We had to be really quick with this photo opportunity & this little fella didn’t hang around for long
This monster of a unit is a Freestanding Fatcat 5 finished in AVM Tar Wool with Black twist Pile internals
Our Cat Rig design got lots of attention on our Instagram feed so we wanted to elaborate on why we undertook what looks like a bit of Hicat® odd ball compared to our normal creations
We’re building up a pretty respectable selection of Molotow™ spray paints that have been used as custom colours on our Scraaatch™ products over the last few years
As mentioned in our +100kg Cat Product Testing blog, customer cats also play a big part of our product testing & Cassius is one of our most important R&D cat consultants

Our blogging page CHAT is here & we are planning to blog our hearts out across Hicat® news, cat health & fitness, product updates & tips on using our climbers with some trivia & funny stuff along the way.
