Katris Kickstarter & GIVEAWAY


*to the tune of the Alphabet Song... A, B, C, D, E, F, G...*

 WAFFLES:  L, Z, O and I and T ... ♫♩ ... tell me what you think of me ♫♩



KATIE:  Waffles, what on earth are you singing?

WAFFLES:  The Alphabet Song.

KATIE:  Doesn't that start out with, well... you know... A, B, C???




WAFFLES:  Not when I'm singing the KATRIS alphabet. You know, those cool scratchers that come in lots of shapes and stuff.    ... L, Z, O and I and T    ♫♩



KATIE:  Waffles, I'm not sure the Katris people will appreciate your song. Neither will all the kindergarten teachers out there. 



Katris Climbers & Scratchers
Chances are you've already seen the Katris modular cardboard cat climber and scratcher around the web. If you haven't... you've been missing out on something special! Katris is an innovative modular scratching & climbinsystem that allows you to play designer. With 5 shapes to choose from, you can mix and match to create endless configurations based on your cat's scratching & climbing preferences and what your home can accommodate from a space perspective.

We love the clean and modern lines. The simplicity of Katris makes it a great choice for virtually any style of home, any decor. Now if we can just keep Glogirly (a closet Tetris gamer) from thinking these are for HER... Just kidding. The functionality and design of Katris is as much for humans as it is for cats.


COMING SOON! Katris Covers For Any Decor
Soon there will be a new way to customize Katris. Their design team has come up with cool covers that fit on the front of the plain cardboard units. With three design collections and an assortment of colors and patterns to choose from, you can create a customized climber and scratcher configuration to compliment your decor... and kitty.

Katris is launching a KICKSTARTER campaign on August 17 to create these fabulous new covers.

The City Collection
This colorful collection will be printed with non-toxic soybean inks on heavy duty recycled paperboard. The patterns give a nod to the Katris headuarters in San Francisco!

The Mono Collection
A simple, clean collection of black and white made of heavy duty 100% recyclable paperboard.

The Wood Collection
Two wood tones made from high quality real wood veneer.


It's a Katris Giveaway!
One lucky GLOGIRLY reader will win two Katris units of their choice and a choice of their favorite cover for each. By entering this giveaway, you'll be automatically signed up to receive an alert when the Katris Kickstarter launches so you'll have an opportunity to take advantage of early bird specials and discounts on both the Katris units and the covers. 

In the event that Katris does not reach their Kickstarter goal (which we can’t imagine will happen), the winner will will still receive 2 Katris units of their choice.

  8. Doctor Watson (Doc) is my climber, he has to be above you all the time. Din, the old man is my scratcher. He doesn't do much climbing at 16. So this would do both of them good.

  9. Dr. Jones ( Indy to his friends ) is my crazy climber and madman scratcher, he's been doing insane stunts since he was a kitten, hence the name. He's big too, averaging 20 lbs, it's crazy to watch him on the tallest perch of the tree. (Raine )

  12. Every time the head peep sees those, she starts hearing the music from the original Tetris game in her head. She spent WAY too much time playing that thing. Can you imagine if we had them in our living room? She would hear that in her head ALL THE TIME!

  21. Furrgus, my orange brat, is already purring his own alphabet song about these great Katti's scratchers! More cardboard to scratch, climb on, and sleep on! (Plus, mom here says he has "loved" his current "squished figure-8" scratcher so much that some new letters would offer variety 😊)

    ReplyDelete
  22. I'm sadly allergic to cats. :( My partner had one once, I guess it was a good scratcher (It tore up the leather sofa!!!!)

  38. Archer is definitely my biggest climber/jumper/scratcher. You can find him anywhere from on top of a door, to on top of a bookcase, to hanging 5 ft off the floor on a scratching post

    ReplyDelete
  39. Socks is the champion climber he climbed to the very top of a very tall pine tree. Scylla is the champion scratcher, but she prefers destroying the doors and carpet to cat scratchers.
