Building a Better Haunted House

October 10, 2018 By: Summer Samba37 Comments

somali cat with haunted house scratcher in box

We have so many house scratchers here, I could probably make a killing flipping them. But my human couldn’t resist bringing home yet another one. I mean, look at the photo on the box — it’s a totally cool haunted house!

With all the detail, it’s no surprise that it has a lot of extra parts for assembly. I wasn’t sure my human would be able to put it together! I made sure she stuck to the instructions.

Of course, I was a really big help!

I made sure all the pieces were in the right place, and that it was in working order.

That included the toy that was attached to the side of the house.

Here it is, all done! And my human didn’t even mess up once! Do you think this house is really haunted?

Uh-oh — I think it is about to be haunted!

    Great photos of you and Binga getting ready for Halloween. Love the house. Hoomin bought one for us last ear, she loves Halloween almost as much as cats. She took it apart very carefully so we can we again this year. Dajango barely fit last year so I’m sure he has to much floof to fit this year. Razzle-Dazzle the new Somali kitten will love it. Happy haunting!

    Oh, I love this post! Our Target is opening next week (YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but I’m sure Halloween won’t be on the shelves any longer. This year’s haunted house is adorable but we SO don’t need another. Must. Resist. MOL

    We knew Binga would show up, but we don’t like that scary lady much. Maybe that place is haunted. Yikes! XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer

    Now that’s one haunted house alright! Great job putting it together. We had to help our mom too. We love it! We have discovered the roof top accommodations, Great way to pounce on unsuspecting victims. Woohoo! Purrs

    Summer, Da Boyz would have that haunted house busted apart in a few minutes! But I may draw bats and ghosties on a sturdy cardboard box for them!

    I love this post, too funny 🙂 That is a cool house, I like the 2 levels. I fear if I bought that one 17 pound Sammy would collapse it. You should flip houses, you would be better than Flip or Flop.
