An animal house is provided which is particularly adaptable for use with cats. The house is formed of an elongated base adapted to stand substantially vertical and a platform at the upper end of the base to form an animal perch. Access is permitted to the interior of the base for the animal to enter and leave the house. It is contemplated that the house can be formed of a unitary single piece of self-supporting material and in one form include an elongated substantially vertical base tapering inwardly from bottom to top and a substantially horizontal platform on the upper end of the base forming the animal's perch. The base is hollow with a hole provided for access to the interior of the house.
