Smartcat - The Ultimate Scratching Post (16"L x 16"W x 32.5"H)
Overview
Why we love it:
SmartCat has the best-looking, most durable, post scratcher of the ones we researched and tested. At 32.5 inches, it's tall enough for your cat to stretch out comfortably. Its solid-wood base is sturdy, so it stays upright even during vigorous scratching or leaping, and its woven-sisal scratching surface is a natural fiber that shreds cleanly (unlike carpet) and won't become prickly over time (unlike sisal rope, also common among scratchers)
On top of that, woven sisal is extremely durable: We let 20 cats abuse it for a week and a half, and it had no visible marks. On Amazon, where it currently has a rating of 4.6 stars (out of five) across more than 7,000 ratings, reviewers praise its durability: “Still going strong five years later,” writes one owner.
Durable, Full-Stretch Post
Cats need a scratching post that will allow them to get a full stretch. The 32″ post height allows the cat to stretch vertically while using the post (important for territorial marking purposes and for toning muscles). The finest materials and workmanship guarantee the scratching post will remain attractive and useful for years. Redesigned base is two pieces for extra durability.
