It looks strong!

Byron used to tipple hers over so she gave up and we've recently bought her a stronger which is better.

I agree way over priced. I'm sure it didnt cost that much to make, my hubby is a joiner lol
if you include p&p you can get a 2 or 3 tier scratch post with a little house or tunnel on it for that price.  ;D

We have the fat boy post http://www.dabners.co.uk/product-4568-ancol-fat-boy-scratching-post.html

Its brilliant but is big, not sure the pics do it justice as they are taken at angles.

We have one of these and I can wholly recommend it - about 37 of ours use this on a daily basis and give it some abuse and it will even take the weight of some of our larger boys sitting on top of it and it doesn't fall over

Do shop around though quite a few places had them on offer I think I paid £26.00 ish including p & P

Ours are due a new one as it is starting to look a bit stressed for full public view and we need a new one upstairs in our bedroom so will move it when the new one comes! :Crazy:

Can defo recommend the Ancol FatBoy Scratcher, I have two at home and Max has never come close to pulling them over, despite trying veeeery hard and he's a big boy!!!!

I've seen them for between £25-30 on various online stores.

Maybe, just maybe, it's a VERY tiny cat and a normal sized scratch post, have you considered that?   ;D ;D ;D

 ;D  They do tend to photograph cat toys etc with kittens to make them look bigger.

I'd just like to endorse the Ancol Fatboy too. Had it for over three years and it's still going strong and looking good, and gets used evey day.
