HOMYHANDS Cat Scratching Post 82 cm tall 🐱
Description:
This compact scratching tower brings play and claw maintenance together in a single piece of furniture, combining a tall post and dangling toys to keep cats active. The 82cm cat scratching post offers a firm, textured surface to help kittens and adult cats file their claws while diverting attention from sofas and curtains.
Key Points
The post has a lifelike look with a 3D leaf top that adds a touch of greenery to indoor spaces and encourages exploration. Two hanging balls and a spring-mounted ball provide different types of motion and sound to attract curious cats, increasing engagement during playtime 🐾.
Stability is a practical focus. The thick post is anchored to a 40cm wide particleboard base wrapped in soft flannel to reduce slipping and offer a comfortable spot for sitting. All assembly tools and instructions are included, so setup is straightforward and fast.
Benefits
The surface is wrapped in 100% natural sisal rope, which withstands repeated scratching and is safe for claws. This material tends to be more durable than carpet-covered posts and helps redirect destructive behaviour away from furniture.
Play elements vary the stimulus. The combination of dangling toys and a spring ball helps train cats to jump and swat, promoting light exercise and mental stimulation. For households with a single cat or occasional visitors, the tower provides compact entertainment without taking up much floor area 🎯.
Consider that very large or extremely heavy cats may prefer a wider or heavier model for maximum rigidity. Also, if you have several very active cats, multiple units or a larger cat tree might offer better long-term resistance.

Usage Recommendations
Place the post in an area where your cat already likes to scratch or rest, for example near a favourite window or by a sofa. Rotate the dangling toys occasionally to keep interest high. Regularly check the sisal for wear and replace the rope if frayed to maintain a safe surface. For cleaning, wipe the particleboard base and flannel covering with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
If your cat shows little interest at first, try rubbing a small amount of catnip on the sisal or playing with the toys briefly to demonstrate their movement and sound. This simple encouragement often helps the cat associate the post with positive interaction and play.
