They'll have more cat things than we have people-things  :innocent:

Exactly as it should be  :Luv: :)

At least I know they will use the posts - sisal addicts  :evillaugh:

It wont be a waste of £6.99 like Doc's harness was, but thats another story  :shify:

To think I might not see those eyes, makes it so hard not to cry, and as we say our long goodbyes, I nearly do.

Stop tempting me everyone  :shify: :evillaugh:

I want one of both of those now! I have already ordered two trees for when we move house - Zooplus is dangerous! (of course accessed through the link  :naughty: )

I saw that "fat" scratch post at the Supreme last year and really wanted it, but when I went back they had sold them all!
Also £5.99 is a really good price - I tend to think that the cheaper stuff wont last long but I want one of those now too - anything to take the temptation away from textured wallpaper...

We have that Cheese (no pun intended) scratch post from Zooplus and ours LOVE it! Its at the bottom of the bed so they always wake up and have a good ol' scratch. That was only £14.99 and we've had it over a year now, its still going strong! We've ordered another one now so we can have one tree or post in each room of the new place  ;D They'll have more cat things than we have people-things  :innocent:

Jamesons scratching post can also be used as a pillow for a mid-play catnap!!

I can thoroughly recommend this one:-

http://www.surreypetsupplies.co.uk/acatalog/Cat_Scratching_Posts.html

I've got 2 around the house now, my boy Max is a big boy, and he can stretch right to the top of the post and really tug on it without it toppling over, and its good for playtimes too with feathers etc, as he dives around it like a lunatic  :)

We've got this one - less than £6. It is catnip infused, and Jameson loves it. Whenever he wakes up in the mornings he'll go straight to it for a good morning stretch/scratch.
We have had it over a year now and it's still in tiptop condition - so definately value for money!

Edited to say that it's also very sturdy; Jameson is just over 5 kilos and love swinging around on it - it has never tipped over.
