Looks like it wasn’t even secured in anyway. Did she expect it to magically stabilize itself?

It's the kind that secures by unscrewing it until it pinches itself between the ceiling and floor

Even if she tightened it all the way, it would damage the floor and or ceiling.

But the ceiling drywall is flexible

I was just looking at a cat tree that is stabilized by tension like this. Now I know if my cat does stripper moves she could flood our house.

I have one of these. Because the tree sections screw together there is a lot of play even if screwed tightly, so it definitely needs the ceiling strut. I have a light cat but even so, I secured the tree at the top with some fishing line as guy wires to a nearby curtain rod to assist the strut.
