Whether your feline friends want to rest or hide, care for their claws or prefer to play, the Karlie Scuro II Scratching Post definitely provides variety! While the three scratching posts made of black sisal are ideal for sharpening claws, the spacious, darkened sleeping cave made of woven water hyacinth invites your cat to retreat. The plush-covered platforms of the Karlie Scuro II Scratching Post not only make for a cosy environment but are also perfect for climbing and easily reaching higher destinations, such as a windowsill, thanks to the step-like feature. At the top level is a lounging basket from which your cat can keep a close eye on what’s going on in the room. A play spring attached to the basket also provides the necessary fun and encourages your cat’s instincts and responsiveness. The necessary stability is also provided: the structure stands securely and firmly thanks to its square, solid base plate as a center of gravity.

Good to know
- Measure your ceiling height before buying a floor-to-ceiling tree and check its adjustment range.
- Choose a post taller than your cat’s full stretch on its hind legs, so it can scratch with its body fully extended.
- Push the post or tree firmly before your cat uses it: if it wobbles, anchor it to the wall with the fixing kit.
Common questions
How tall should a scratching post be?
Tall enough for your cat to stretch out fully on its hind legs with front paws extended, plus some extra. For most adult cats that means a much taller post than the small ones sold for kittens. The base must be heavy or fixed so the post does not wobble.
Is sisal or carpet better for scratching?
Sisal is usually the better choice. It is hard-wearing and gives a satisfying shred, while looped carpet can snag claws and teaches the cat that carpet is for scratching. Some cats also love cardboard scratchers.
