Cat Tree Stability & Structural Sizing Engine

🔧 Engineering Calculator · Calculates Dynamic Tipping Torque & Required Structural Post Specs

Physics-Based Sizing: Standard cat trees fail when an adult cat leaps off an upper tier, multiplying downward mass by horizontal deceleration force. Input your cat's specifications below to calculate the required engineering thresholds before buying.
