I agree with Coony....because cats love to climb and they love high places than on the ground...they don't run that much because they prefer to play on higher grounds... they are the only pets in the world who needed a cat tree , a scratch post even in US they called a cat's tree, a Cat gym or cat's tower which is created to have a cat stepper to explorer higher and has a canopy for hideout or sleep all in one but it is created vertically or can be extended to cat's liking but mostly on higher ground.... there is no dog tree to scratch or climb, isn't it?
Cat's natural temperament is to extend their body. They love to stretch, climb and pounce. It can be seen on how their physical body works... paws and hinds can be stretched longer than dogs...their bones are flexible and have sharper claws.
*Refer to this pic by IKEA US and Cat lover's blog pics then u can use Coony's suggestion while u have these on your wall:

One can easily own a few cats in an apartment & the cats still have enough space to work out with the vertical space provided. You can put up tall cat tree or install few shelves on the wall & you can bet your last dollar they love the top position (you don't need to be a cat genius to know this).
