update: the ‘CATable’ is presented at the 2015 gwangju design biennale as part of the ‘asian design hub’ exhibition that offers a look at how the world economy is shifting from west to east by highlighting objects that interpret and express the cultural traditions and design values of these three countries in a contemporary context. the show transmits the notion that design is something universal and easily understandable, and that people can feel empathy with the fact that good products can make our lives brighter as a result of combining long-established techniques with modern aesthetics and approaches.

Omigosh. This is so awesome. My cat, Simba, must have one. Please, where in the US is it sold? Or anywhere in the world where it can be shipped from?
How much and where?
Those cubes are W-O-O-W !!!!
The CA Table 2.0 cubes are wonderfully creative! I can picture my dainty little female darting all through the holes. Her brother, the sumo cat, would probably get stuck:-). Are they available for purchase?
I love this. Can I buy this in Belgium. How much does it cost?
OMG, this is fantastical. Cats and i would love it…is the price is right. Please say it will be available soon!
I hope you’ll be making these available for purchase. I also hope they will be attainable for working stiffs like me! even if I could get one a year, since home isn’t home without a cat they would go to good use.
