The gym looks less forlorn with a cat busy trying it out. After about 2 hours, Bujang finally decided that he would try out the reassembled gym. He came to it slowly and sniffed and tasted as well as scrtched about a bit. I was hoping he would sit in his basket to try it out - it being in a new low position and may not be as attractive in terms of view nor security. He sniffed about a bit, turned around and began to explore the rest of the structure. He sniffed about a great deal, possibly to see whose scents were on the cat gym but it is mostly his :))He was also able to stretch more at the newly assembled scratch post as it is made up of two posts screwed on together. Of course he lost no time trying to subdue the monster with his teeth. :)
He has yet to sit in the basket as after the scratch post, he decided to try out the top tier but he lost his step and fell. Since I was there, I managed to save him. After that, he jumped off and licked his paws to steady himself and left to sleep on the table.
I would try to drill some holes and secure the gym to the wall of the room. Many people told me that drilling the ceiling is too difficult. Once the gym is more secure, I would not worry about it toppling and Bujang can try to climb the tier if he so wants. As I had removed the basket, it is now much more difficult to climb to the top as he has fewer footholds. Maybe it would be good exercise for him. :)
