cat scratch fever! for beds and furniture

we had to replace the current pixie scratch box, it was square and really ruined it. We searched every store and couldn't find anything, I found this and after reading the measurements we decided to give it a try. It's higher than the previous one, but not as deep. As long as it's a hit, she's a girl who enjoys her food and treats, if you get my meaning, and she's comfortable on it. I placed an inner solid square next to the big one and she likes to use it to access the taller square. Theโ€ฆ

Sturdy and flips over for dual use

This durable RevainBasics cat scratcher flips over for dual use. Oval. The cardboard seems extra dense so it doesn't tear as quickly or easily as others we've had. It is long and wide enough for a small to medium sized cat to lie on, as cats love to do. It's a bit small for my big cats but they still do it and just hang down the sides. Because you can flip it over to a different, fresh, scratchy surface, it's ideal for multi-cat households. My cats took to it straight away and didn't need theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great value
Cons
  • Fits

Looking for quality? Read this, then keep looking!

Big brand cat scratching posts that I usually buy have been out of stock for a while so I bought 2 of these thinking I could put them together as an alternative. Big mistake. Below are numerous quality and security issues.1. Two good sides, two cheap sides. 2 sides are nice and tight for scratching and 2 sides are just long strips. See photo - the cats immediately began to crush them. In fact, even though it's square, only two sides are strong. Chemical smell. They have a distinct odor (likeโ€ฆ

The best scratch tunnel for my cats๐Ÿ’— Strong and heavy.

Bought some large square ones to make a long tunnel for my cats. The black cat Sylvia sleeps and freezes day and night in the tunnel and on top of that. So I bought a few more, smaller square ones this time, and built another tunnel. Tess, my smallest but oldest gray tabby cat, sleeps and freezes in this tunnel day and night. Eh! Now I've run out of money to build another tunnel for my three other cats. This will show you how much fun it is for cats to have a claw tunnel to hide and play inโ€ฆ

WHAT DOES IT DO WITH THE ODD MOLDY SMELL?

Our cats LOVE this type of claw; We've bought MANY shapes and sizes and they all respond well. but NOT this one! :( I was dying to see how they would like the new, larger size as we only had a 12 x 12 from another seller. Unfortunately, from the moment I lugged this heavy box into my house, it gave off a SIGNIFICANT Odor.(It's been raining here lately but that was on a large covered porch and the box wasn't wet.) I was hoping the smell was just something on the box.Apparently the smell wasโ€ฆ

Smells just like the brand name 1

Smells a little, maybe mold, cigarette smoke, some kind of chemical or maybe just a bunch of paper. Who knows. However, I bought the branded style eight scraper for twice the price before it was available and it smelled EXACTLY THE SAME when I got it. I even went back to check the reviews to see what others thought of this scent and oddly enough I didn't find a single mention in the thousands of reviews. So I just left it on and the smell went away after about a week as I expected from thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Slightly torn

I didn't know what to expect when I ordered the Revain Basic cat scratching post. My two rescued are big boys. One cat weighs 17 pounds and the other 20, both cats are considered aggressive floor scratchers. That's how I knew what I didn't want. It's time to move away from flat and sloping corrugated cardboard cat trees/scrapers, which may look good and are economical, but roll around the house like rollers, leaving a trail of shredded cardboard (even with two five-pound weights hidden inside).

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Compatible

Strong as hell but smells a little

I read a few reviews before purchasing this product and one of them mentioned the bad mold smell - so bad her cats wouldn't use it. I just got this in the mail and will update it in a week, but it actually smells quite strongly of something like mold. I can't tell for sure if it's mold or some kind of chemical they spray on the cardboard to treat it. I don't smell it unless I'm a few feet from the cube, but it's there and my cats have more sensitive noses than I do. Time will tell if theyโ€ฆ

  • New

  • Easy maintenance
