A collapsible and scaleable floor to ceiling post forming an exercise and perch system for domestic cats. Using integral platforms ( 37,44 ) that function as steps and perching areas ( 35 ). The post may be adjusted to different ceiling heights by adding or removing interchangeable sections ( 41,44 ) and provides fine adjustment with a telescopic section that is spring biased ( 28 ) to limit forces on the ceiling. The step/platforms are rotationally spaced by 120 degrees for an optimal rise to run ratio resulting in climbing comfort, ascend and descend speed, safety, and contemporary appearance. The post has a cross-section that forces step and loft mounting at 120° intervals using multiples of three cross-sectional facets. The assembly provides for a removable scratching area near the bottom of the post and padded perch area nearest the ceiling.
