Amazon Basics Cat Scratcher - Indoor Classic Single Cat & Kittens Scratching Post with Brush, Small (16.5" H) - Beige

The media could not be loaded. I have two playful little ones, they are always looking for a place to climb and scratch. This has been one of the best scratching posts I have bought for them. It is really big and sturdy, easy to assemble, elegant, but what surprised me the most was the price. It is truly high quality.

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!

Best BUY for a new kitten!!! This was affordable and our kitten scratches it EVERYDAY!! Of course, she gets a treat after she does 🤪 but that’s the point right? Better that she uses the post than the furniture! Great quality; it’s sturdy (she likes to jump on the top) and the ball has been attacked way too many times now! Was actually gonna buy another one to keep near another couch, but we opted for a larger kitty condo…BUT this is hand downs a MUST for a new kitten in the house!

The cats really like this scratching post. I bought it to replace one the 2 t male cats have scratched to death. I wanted something tall and I wanted something with a place either one can sit on. This is a great size and made of wood. I like it It functions really well. It is not noisy, and it does it's job. The cats have multiple scratching posts. Keep this one in my Daughters room. All parts were included. This is a sturdy scratching post. No matter what, no furniture is 100%, no matter how many scratching posts ect you have. We have material drawers on our bedroom dressers and they have used those for scratching and digging claws into. Also, leather chairs have claws marks in them.

It's very sturdy. I have two 17 lb cats, they are strong and this post is a good choice for them. They both like it for scratching and those Big stretches they like to do. Was easy to put together and all parts were included. Only had it a week but so far its been a good choice.

The media could not be loaded. I've had this guy for 10 months now; at the time, i had wanted something simple in style but tall enough my single cat could stretch out on, as we also recently purchased a rather nice and expensive couch. I had blanched a little at the price, as I was expecting something poorly made and ready to toss after 3-6 months, but honestly this was a decent price point for quite a bit more height than the average post you can find.I am incredibly suprised at the quality of this thing. After 10 months of use, it looks minimally used, despite my cat vastly prefering it over the couch itself. It's sturdy despite being easy to put together, and sheds hair and debris minimally. I rarely need to clean it.My cat can stretch her full length on it fairly well, though she is on the shorter side. She likes climbing it to perch on top of it, and I have taught her to scratch on it "with me" AKA, she goes to town and i drag my nails across it with her.I feel as though my only complaint is it's kind of an eyesore -- imagine a 5 story hotel in the in the middle of a suburb. Kind of out of place in comparison and rather clunky. It's as tall as my waist and about as thick as a football is round. Height and thickness matter for durability, I know, but it doesn't change the facts.Regardless it's probably the best scratching post out there. Give this guy a chance.I am not very good at taking videos and playing with my daughter at the same time so the video provided is coincidentally perfect for showing off the scratching post itself.

It’s a great product! My Sam is 18lbs and I wanted something where he could really stretch out while he was scratching and this is it!! He loves to climb it and sit on top and watch what’s going on! It’s the funniest thing! It’s really sturdy and the base is wide enough to hold my big cat, and he is. It’s not anchored, but it does come with the strap to be able to anchor it. I’m considering getting one for the catio, but our weather is junk, so I don’t know. (Southern Louisiana)It’s absolute a strong and fun product and I highly recommend especially for indoor cats. I live in a camper (since hurricane) and I try to give him as many spaces to jump, climb, or scratch as possible.

Within moments of putting this together (which by the way was super easy) both of my cats walked up to it and began using their new scratching post. It’s super sturdy. My one cat is chunky and I needed something he wouldn’t pull over. It’s tall enough they can get a nice stretch too by standing up on their back legs and reaching. Previously, I purchased cheap posts that my cats could pull right over, but just decided I was going to spend a few more dollars to get something nice. I am Happy I did because my cats love it and I don’t have to worry about it falling over onto them! Last, as you can see in my photo - my baby Louie loves to perch himself at the very top and look around what he can get into!
