The folks over at Square Paws create pet furniture pieces that are virtually works of art (just check out some of their whimsical cat towers–amazing!).

Knowing that beautiful interior creates intrigue and interest, they decided to help spruce up the cat room at a local shelter.

The Brevard South Animal Care Center in Florida were the lucky recipients of a free room makeover, and boy, did it turn out great!

Now called the Harbor Room, it’s certainly eye-catching. Don’t you think this is a great way to draw more potential adopters in?

It all started with that beautiful striped lighthouse!

There’s plenty of places for the kitties to hang out…

It’s all cleverly disguised by seaside swag.

And there’s even a dock for luxurious lounging. (See the fishing poles with the hanging cat toys? How creative!)

Not only do the kitties love their new oasis, but visitors love checking out the Harbor Room, and all the cats who stay there!
