Cosma Cat Scratching Pad

I've bought this a few times for my 2 cats, but find it only lasts about 3 weeks til we have to replace it. It looks great and it's cheap - just wish it lasted longer. I'd rather pay more than have to replace it so often. (One of my cats has asthma and the sisal scratchers trigger it, which is why I have to buy the cardboard ones).

My cats definitely have a preference and it's always this style they both go for, had to wait a while on delivery this time so was super pleased when it arrived as my bed was quickly becoming the new fave place to scratch... cats are happy too! Like everyone says you do get bits of cardboard but unavoidable and rather that than my stairs or bed being destroyed

The cats absolutely adore scratching the cardboard, didn't even need to sprinkle the cat nip (which incidentally falls straight through anyway) The down side is that after a week the shredding of the cardboard is awful and little bits are everywhere like confetti.

Our scratching post arrived already dented, so it didn’t look good from the start. It’s fine for a smaller cat – my six-month-old British Shorthair is already taking up the whole surface, and I can see the middle of the post is starting to crack. It’s a shame, because he really likes lying on it, but I think we’ll invest in a more expensive and sturdier horizontal scratching post.

My cat’s favorite scratching board. Just be aware that it makes a bit of a mess when they scratch it... and if you have a bigger cat weighing between 7 and 8 kg, it doesn’t keep its shape with daily use.
