SmartCat Ultimate Scratching Post by SmartCat

高さが長いのでニャンコさんも、のびのびして爪とぎしています。 凄く重いので安定感もバツグン！！！ ニャンコさんが飛びつこうと..登ろうと... 倒れない所が気に入りました。

I have four fairly large cats (ranging from 6kg to 9kg) who have tested this product for me. This product sat in my Amazon shopping cart for some time while I pondered whether it was crazy to spend so much money on a scratching pole. After having had the pole for approximately three months now, I’m comfortable to say it was worth the money as my cats seem to love it and it’s a quality product. The pole is much taller than your average scratching pole (approximately 85cm from the base to the top) and very sturdy. It doesn’t show any signs of wobble despite my cats sitting on top of it, applying their amble weight to it while scratching and scratching while hanging upside down from the top of it (some pictures are included to show this). My cats are very destructive and I generally find that any scratching toy I purchase them starts showing wear and fluff almost immediately - I’ve included a picture to show the condition after three months of active use and it’s fairing really well. One downside to this product would be is that I’m not sure there’s a way to replace the scratching sections once worn and/ or destroyed - however, if the life of the product is lengthy I’m comfortable with this. One other thing I’d add is it took almost a week for my cats to show any interest in this product at all so don’t give up on it (and feel enraged about wasting your money) if your babies don’t show immediate interest !

Pesado e robusto. O meu gato de 7Kg consegue arranhar sem o derrubar e até subir lá para cima.

The product is good but the top is smooth and not covered with cat's covers . my cats slipped from it and they love to sit on top which they cant with this product so they just use the stand

Ok

The first thing that attracted me to this cat scratcher besides it's sheer size and bargain price, was the look of it. I didn't want some cheap, furry thing stood in the apartment. This however, looks like a piece of furniture, like a roman column. It could even double as a telephone stand. I'm sure the manufacturers realized this and they took the liberty to make the wood parts in the picture look and elegant deep brown - with sloped contours. This however is not what you get. The wood is pale MDF and there are no sloping contours. Therefore, the picture is misleading. Nonetheless, I'm giving this 5 stars since it's still a quality, sturdy and effective scratch post at a cost which is more than reasonable. Noodles the cat began to use it instantly and is still doing so after a week since purchase - enticed with a bit of cat nip in the seams at eaither side. The cissal holds up well. Despite the picture being misleading, this still looks like a piece of furniture. I'd even go as far to say that it looks good as something in the room. Get one. Just expect the pale blocks of wood.
