More Information:
Scratching isn’t just about claw health, cats also scratch as a way to stretch and flex their bodies. So when you’re choosing a stand-up scratching post, you must find one that’s tall enough to allow your cat to stretch out their whole body. A small post can deny them the exercise and the vital health benefits of scratching and will lose interest very quickly. A post taller/longer than your cat’s length is ideal; they will be able to climb as they scratch, making sure they get a full workout.
Materials:
The Cat Scratching Post base and top are made from New Zealand made Pine Plywood. They are available in 3 designs, Basic Plywood, Covered with Carpet or Rope.
The post is available in 2 heights, 800mm or 1000mm tall. It is made from a very strong, New Zealand made 100mm diameter cardboard tube wrapped with natural Manila rope.
The Plywood is finished with 100%, VOC-free Pure Tung Oil which completely seals and waterproofs the timber.
The alternative to Tung Oil is a wood stain which is a great way to make your furniture really stand out. The range of natural wood stains from the Natural Paint Co, not only look good there VOC-free and free of all harmful chemicals. They provide a highly durable and washable finish to timber, will not cause light woods to go golden like a varnish, they also provide a completely water-proof finish and is approved for use on toys & children’s furniture according to European regulations.

Excellent Cat Scratching Post. Very well made and our cat, Ziggy loves it. After a few days of cautious checking it out he now uses it every day, several times a day. Thank you very much Robert.

Great design and craftsmanship. We have a tall cat and this is perfect for him for a good stretch and scratch. He loves the natural fibres.
