  • My Cat’s New Favorite Thing – A Total Win!
Style: Premium Scratching Post Color: Brown Size: 35.4" H
I recently bought a tall cat scratching post for my furry little tornado, and let me just say—it’s been a game-changer for both of us. First off, the height is perfect. My cat loves to stretch out fully while scratching, and this tall post lets her do just that. She immediately claimed it as her own, and I haven’t caught her scratching the couch or curtains since. Honestly, I think she prefers this post now, which is a huge relief for my furniture! The build quality is excellent—super sturdy and doesn’t wobble at all, even when she launches herself at it like a gymnast. The base is wide and solid, and the sisal wrapping has held up impressively well through lots of daily clawing and climbing. One unexpected bonus: she uses it like a jungle gym. She climbs, scratches, and even perches on top like it’s her personal lookout tower. It’s adorable and has totally helped burn off her extra energy. The neutral color also fits nicely with my decor—it’s not one of those cat things you have to hide in a corner. It actually looks kind of cool in the living room. Bottom line: this tall cat scratching post was worth every penny. It’s durable, functional, and my cat is obsessed with it. Highly recommend if you’ve got a cat that loves to climb, scratch, or just be the queen of high places! ... show more

  • My cats love this scratching post!
Style: Scratching Post Color: Grey Size: 31.5" H
I needed something to stop my cats from digging into the corners of the couch, so I bought them this scratching post. They already have multiple scratching posts on their cat tower, but refuse to use them, so it was time to buy a standalone one. My first reason for deciding on this exact product was that it was relatively cheaper than other options, as some of these other ones listed on here are kinda outrageous— not gonna lie. Either way, I’m happy I bought this. It has been a couple months since purchasing and it has lasted a good while before the cats finally got through the rope, slowly shredding it off bit by bit. It perfectly matched their grey cat tower and the overall neutral aesthetic of one of the rooms in my household. It’s height is true to the product description, it allowed my cats to get a bit of a stretch in while also shredding their claws. Overall, I don’t regret buying this product as it was cheap, saved my furniture from being completely destroyed, and made my cats happier. ... show more

  • Still looks new after two years of hard use
Style: Premium Scratching Post Color: Brown Size: 35.4" H
I never write reviews, but I just looked at this cat scratching post that I bought TWO YEARS ago and noticed that it looks as new as the day I bought it. It was AND STILL IS the best looking cat post I've ever had, and I have two cats that attempt numerous times a day to tear it to pieces! How can it still look new? My big cat has tiger claws, and can climb up and sit on it and it doesn't threaten to tip over (like virtually every previous scratching post did). Just buy it, it's a super value. ... show more

  • It’s made well and strong ..
Style: Premium Scratching Post Color: Brown Size: 35.4" H
A good product I think- however, my cat will not use it . I don’t think he likes the stand it sits on . It was a little tricky to get together but I think it it’s a good product-it is tall and I think a kitten would love it for climbing- My cat is ten years old so he’s finicky-I’m hoping for him to eventually accept it-but cats are cats & if you have one you know they do only do what they like-still it is a good product-It is heavy and won’t fall over - ... show more

  • Sturdy post
Style: Scratching Post Color: Grey Size: 31.5" H
I tried a different scratching post and the cat wouldn’t use it bc it turned over on her. I always come back to this one. Very sturdy. I was still screwing it together and she was already scratching on it.

  • My kittens love this post

My kittens love this and have not scratched our furniture one time since we got this. They crawl up and around and upside down this. Awesome price. Easy to put together. Made well and is holding ip through the two of them always scratching on it. I highly recommend

  • Wary cat approved
Style: Scratching Post Color: Grey Size: 31.5" H
I’m a little wary of ordering low-cost cat furniture because I’ve found it to be unstable and immediately rejected when the cats feel the wobble. I got this specifically to put next a planter my cats kept scratching and knocking over into a huge mess. Happily, the scratcher is study enough to be accepted! ... show more

  • Exceptional item
Style: Premium Scratching Post Color: Brown Size: 35.4" H
Our cats love this one! Their go to post and even with daily wear and tear it holds up way better than the coiled rope posts. It’s large enough for our adult cat and our 1 yr loves it too. Their kitten will perch on it but its a little small for our fat cat. Easy to put together and very durable
