The temperature is getting a little lower, so we all know what time it is. It's time to get ready and spooky for Halloween. Yes, it's still over a month away, but anyone who loves Halloween knows that it takes at least a month's worth of prep to get ready for the spookiest time of the year.
And now, your cats can get involved in Halloween too. Target is selling cardboard haunted houses for cats, which feature two floors complete with a scratch pad floor so your cats can ruin the carpet in their home instead of yours. The Hyde & EEK! Boutique Basic Cat Scratcher costs $17 and the inside is perfect for a nap, while the roof provides the ultimate vantage point.
At 19 inches long, 17 inches wide, and almost 23 inches tall, the house is a perfect little spot for your furry friend. The description on Target's website reads:
"It’s a spooky chateau for your favorite cat (black or otherwise) – just in time for Halloween! Frightful and delightful, the Deluxe Haunted Mansion from Boots & Barkley is where your pet will be wanting to spend all her time. It’s two stories of entertainment, with a spacious cove on the bottom complete with a scratch pad built into the floor. The perfect perch to keep an eye on the room is up above. Even better, the entire set assembles in just a few easy steps. The only thing not included are spirits to haunt the place, but your cats will have a scary amount of fun nonetheless."
While the highlights include:
And yes, cats seem to be enjoying it. "Found this Halloween Cat House at Target and it was actually a little hard to put together but I did it and my cats love it," one user wrote on Twitter.
Another added: "Our cats are loving their Haunted Mansion from [Target]."
Just look at these happy customers.
It's even got little windows for the cats to play with.
Basically, it's perfect.
