Cat doesn't use

My cat does not use this product to scratch on. I wanted something that was sturdy and was not going to be destroyed in less than 5 minutes. The only thing he liked about this product was the feathers. Once he accomplished his goal of taking the feathers off, he hasn't played or scratched on this.

too lightweight for large cat

This is a good product but you need to anchor it down if you have a large cat. My (large) cat knocks it over easily and then heads for the hills. She likes the attached feather toys. Try the curved scratcher for large cats or the rectangle cardboard scratcher.

My kitty loves this scratching post, he always uses it HOWEVER the feathers (which he loved) were destroyed about half an hour after getting it. He absolutely ripped them to shreds. I have detached the strings that held the feathers and now he just uses this as his favorite scratcher.

We have had this nearly two weeks. I was skeptical as I didn't want to pay a small fortune on a scratching post that didn't get used, so thought I would try this one. Pearl loves it, but the carpet isn't very good quality as the pieces keep coming off. I guess you get what you pay for. I can't see 'holes' where carpet is missing yet but keep finding the little carpet hair that has been scratched off. She loved the feathers - and has already torn one off. Good for the price. Glad I have it - hope it will save our coffee table. :)

Bought this for a 6 months old kitten. She liked it at first, however the feather pieces came down pretty quickly. Even though i can reattach them, it's still annoying how easily they come off. After a few days, Cleo lost interest n I notice its mainly cuz her nails keep getting stuck there. IT's an average product. I wouldn't really recommend it.

When i first introduced Rapidash to this she wouldn't do anything beside rub herself on it. And after accidentally pulling off one of the feather's i was beginning to think I'd wasted my money but she actually enjoys it more without the one feather. She pulls on the elastic and then scratches up a storm. Plus it's nice and compact so I can put it anywhere.

The base is not wide enough and it tips over when the cats scratch it, and the toys are so flimsy, my cat ripped it to shreds the first day. Not worth the money, I would suggest getting a more durable one, which means spending more money.

Our 3 month old kitten seems to like this scratcher, but within no time he had managed to tear the feathers our of the toys and had them all over the place. he did think that this was a great toy and it is pretty simple to put other toys on it. The scratcher, which is what we bought it for so the toys falling apart aren't really a big deal, seems to be fairly well made for the price and saves the couch and other furniture.

buy replacement toys when you order

The scratching post itself is great it's sturdy and my cats love it. The feather toys on the other hand did not last 30 minutes. They plucked right off the post. All that was left hanging was the black cord. Luckily I had ordered 2 replacement toys for a different scratcher when I bought this.

I've had this post for almost a year now. Max loves it and uses it all the time. It's still holding strong. No broken carpet pieces falling off like what happens on other posts.

colors and cats

We have two cats and our one cat will only use a scratch post (not cardboard or sisal) so I bought two of these several months ago.
When they came I received two different colors - an off white and a tan. To me that was no problem since they will go in different rooms but to my cat it made a huge difference. He will only scratch the off white post. I've rubbed catnip on the tan post, sprayed it with catnip tea but he won't do anything other than just sniff the tan post. The other cat wants nothing to do with either post.
My suggestion would be to purchase this in the store so you get the color you want and it's easy to exchange if your cat has no interest.
BTW, neither of my cats are interested in the feathers - they just get in the way. I'll be cutting them off.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Our two 9-month olf kittens like to scratch their paws on the vertical part that holds the toys. They will bat the birds with their paws and play together. One of our kittens plays with this by himself. Good toy to have indoors or on the front porch!

Maybe a kitten can use it, but it's too small and not sturdy. One cat played with the feathers until they came off in a week's time, but they aren't able to scratch on it.
