Well he did it, clever daddy ( i.e Tigerlilies granddaddy) made this tabletop stand which Tigerlily was brave enough to go on after about 1/2 hour!

 

Just need some ideas for a bigger stand

I have a "store-boughten" playstand for Maxi (actually "internet-boughten") consisting of what amounts to a PVC table with a central PVC column from which sprout a half-dozen manzanita branches at intervals. Its main advantage is that it's on wheels, so I can roll her from room to room; she can hang out with us in the living room when we have company or in the dining room when we're eating or in the kitchen when the stove's not on, for instance, without always having to lurk on Mama's shoulder. Each branch has a ring screw for attaching a toy, but so far Maxi has totally ignored (or been scared of) anything on the lower branches, and only really wants to hang out on the top branch and be Princess of the Playstand.

Thats a nice litte stand I have a little one like that that I use allot for training and moving around from room to room. I have three big ones also but the little one is handy for lots of stuff. Like teaching them tricks. or even basic training like step ups or recall.

There's a space between my coat closet and the ceiling. I needed a place for Cabo, my amazon, to play so I got to thinking and built this (including most of the toys) for him to hang out on. He LOVES it up there. He's central to the whole house and sees everything.
