26.4" Sisal Tall Post

I bought my cat a lovely little scratch post when I got him, but the fibers were like long rug fibers, and he has never taken to it in the slightest. THIS post, however, he finally scratches! I have had to tape all the corners of my furniture before, but thankfully I finally found a post that he will scratch. He played with the ball on top of it immediately when I showed it to him, and that is what initiated the scratching I believe, though now he does not play with the ball much at all. But it's a nice enough post, and I'm happy with it!

My cat loves this thing - and she uses it several times a day, which is great because she used to scratch on the furniture. She uses it so much she has shredded two of these over the past few years and I've replaced them. The only drawback is the product isn't very heavy so it can tump over easily. Suggest putting it in a corner - seems to stay upright better when tucked in a corner. Give it a try - your cat will like it and it will save your carpet and furniture.

My cat loves it. He’s a large rag doll and we needed something a little taller than normal and this worked out well!Assembly was slightly annoying as the base is split in half and held together by a thin veneer so when you go to screw in the post it doesn’t want to stay together. Once you have it build though it’s very well built!Sturdiness is pretty good but I think there base needs to be heavier as my cat tends to lift it off the ground about halfway making it a bit difficult to scratch sometimes.Even with that said it’s become almost a ritual for him to scratch the post when he enters a room with one of the posts in it.All in all a quality product sub a few minor details.

I just got myself a new sofa and had heard that having something like this (as opposed to the floor model scratching pads that I also have) may make my cat quit scratching on the sofa. It Worked. I put it next to my sofa at first so that when she came to scratch on it she would encounter this first and now it is set off to the side where she still seeks it out to exercise her claws.I have had it for about a month now and while I am sure it will not last forever, it is doing it's job for now.

We adopted two young female cats from our community shelter a couple of months ago. Both have used the scratching post, although the Maine Coon female appears to use it much more often.Our cats never played with the ball at the end of a spring, possibly owing to her small stature. On the other hand, one scratches the pole and base about a dozen times daily. Even better, her scratching appears limited to that carpeted toy. As such, we very much recommend this carpeted toy.

We got this to provide an additional scratching post for our cat to go in our living room.Assembly was straight forwards, and the wood appears to be sturdier than another post we purchased once which had flimsy wood and destabilized quickly. This is much more stable. However our young kitten has made short work of the ball that attaches on the end of the spring - that didn't last a week... and now I'm finding strips of the carpeting from the lower post section littered over our house as the kitten continues to tear into that piece.The top section doesn't look like it will hold out much longer either.Works in a pinch, but don't expect it to last, and if you're looking for something with more longevity my advice would be to keep looking.

I enjoyed ordering the scratch post and getting it quickly in the mail. It was easy to assemble. I showed it to my cat, Blackie. She ran into another room. Needless to say she took fright at an unusual shape. My dog, Buster tore up Blackie's first scratching post. I put it at the end of my sofa where Buster can't get to it. He found a way and demolished the cool ball on the spring. Has anyone seen my ball? Jeffrey

This is a nice looking scratching post. My cat is using it. She weighs about 10 lbs but she is able to move this around and tip it over. She could not do this with the last one I had. So I wish it were a bit heavier. It was easy to put together. One piece of twine was loose and I had to glue it back on the post so I could put it together. Since it appears to have only one layer of twine, I think she will destroy this pretty quickly.
