Abstract
An animal perch is constructed from a conventional camera tripod which has three upwardly converging legs that support a vertical post above their point of convergence. A litter tray for the perch is constructed by providing a large tray with a central opening that is sized for passing over the support post and resting on top of the converging legs for support. A horizontal perch bar is then secured to the upper end of the vertical support post for the animal to perch on. Cups may also be secured to the perch bar for food and water for the animal.
