Probably most cat owners have dreamed of building their cat a little home at some point, but not like this! Peter, the founder of the ZenByCat organization, and the builder of this wonderful cat paradise that we’re about to show you, slowly but surely executed his life’s dream: living in harmony surrounded by the cuddly and perfectly happy rescued fluffballs.
Just how many cats, you might ask? Over twenty. But it’s alright, Peter’s house is built for it. Literally. So scroll right down and check out the catopia, the Shangri-La of cat homes, except this one exists for real.

Nobody could’ve imagined that he’d turn his house into catopia (cat utopia), but he did

Peter’s ZenByCat non-profit organization was found to fight a deadly disease called FIP, Feline Infectious Peritonitis
Image credits: zenbycat
The story of Zen By Cat begins with a kitten Peter adopted in, 2016, Miss Bean.
Miss Bean was diagnosed with Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP). With her condition rapidly deteriorating Peter seemingly had no choice but to euthanize her. But before the decision was final, Peter received a message from a friend of his. She said she knew a vet at UC Davis, who might be able to get Miss Bean into a Drug Trial for young kittens with FIP. Peter decided he had to try. Over the course of the next 31 days Peter and Miss Bean went on a roller coaster of improvements and setbacks against FIP. Sadly, Miss Bean lost her fight on July 26, 2016.
In honor of Miss Bean and all other victims of FIP, Zen By Cat was set up as a nonprofit to raise money and awareness for FIP research. Since this, Dr. Pederson and others at UC Davis, have made great strides in their research and have successfully cured many cats from FIP, including Peter’s cat Smokey. But there is still work to be done to bring the drug that saved Smokey and others to market. Please consider donating to support the work of researcher like Dr. Pederson and others that we help fund through The Bria Fund associated with the Every Cat Health Foundation who are all working to end this horrible disease known as FIP.
Peter’s workstation just screams “I love cats”

And last but not least, an obligatory stalking window

I've seen video's of this guy, and he is my f*****g hero. The worst part of living in romania is all the stray animals. It's absolutely soul crushing. Emaciated dogs, who in turn kill cats, both of which get hit by cars....I get attached to every single one of them, name them all, spend months earning their trust just to be able to give them medicine and get them fixed. I've found homes for dozens of cats over the past decade (my wife and i had 8 inside cats at our highest count, 3 died in the past couple years) and 20 that would show up in our garden...everyday. We have a peach tree in our garden that they like to climb....so i added a few decent sized platforms at different levels so they can sprawl out in safety, once the weather improves they'll be upgraded with little roofs so they can sit even when it rains. I've lost, hundreds of cats over the past decade....i wish i could have done everything this guy managed.

Much credit to you for doing as much as you can! Don't give up, there are people like me out here rooting for you. Have you thought of getting a GoFundMe account to bring in more resources to help you in your blessed work? I hope you get the love, support and reward you deserve.

But how does he clean all those spaces, and how long does it take? I'm not even a clean freak.

I reckon he probably has one of those adjustable duster heads on a telescopic pole that brushes away the dust and then another damp one to wipe them over with.

This is amazing! Lucky kitties. But I wish you would have shown what he has for litter boxes. I know that's not a very glamorous subject, but that is also part of having healthy indoor cats. We have 8 and are always looking for ideas.

I have rescue cats as well. 25 of them right now. They are well taken care of as well but they don't have all the amenities yours have. Absolutely beautiful.. God Bless you!
