Geek Project -- Chell's playhouse

This week's project has been a cat condo for Atticus. I decided to make it Portal 2 themed, as I'm replaying that game through right now. First off, we had to make a sign for the laser pointer that was on theme....

Next, was a companion cube to play with, and a Wheatley buddy to bat at (both buyable at the Valve store, if you don't feel like making your own).

We continued on theme with two separate area's, one blue, one orange. Orange area is walled off and secluded for kitty litter box. The wall on the left is removable so  I can clean it out easier, and the "litter box" is just a London drugs basic storage box with a plastic liner. I've added about 1/2 inch of space between the ceiling of the litter box/second story and the outside wall, so that smell won't discourage proper use. Two basic stainless steel feeding trays are used, with the stands flipped upside down so they can hang off the condo walls without more effort. Second storey is reinforced wire covered in cardboard and then towel. The towel is just tied on with rope so he can bunch it around, and it's easier to take off to clean. All other towel bits on the inside are sewn into pillow case format, and then mounted on peices of foam or cardboard.

Scratching post in the corner isn't particularly on theme yet, but I'm thinking of recovering the giraffe spots with appropriately colored fabric.

Next we jut had to have a level sign on the tiered cat furniture outside.... He jumps on these two levels to reach the top of the condo. There is a lounging pad and a portal two themed bookshelf on the top.
