MidWest Feline Nuvo Grand Forte 41-in Cat Scratching Post

We have a large cat - she can stand on the ground and reach doorknobs. Finding scratching posts for her is difficult because none of them are tall enough. This one is definitely tall enough! I was initially concerned that the base was too small to support scratching on the upper half. That has not been a problem at all. Even when 13 pounds of cat is hanging from the upper section, it only wobbles a little. Bonus - the scratching post is tall enough that when the cat is sitting on top, she is at a perfect height for chin scratches, which we're all enjoying. Highly recommend. Glad I bought 2!

I love this scratching pole for my cats! I was looking for one that is tall enough to allow them to fully stretch up and this delivers! The sisal is the thicker variety and perfect for them to scratch their claws. My ~11 pound cat is an avid climber. She will scale the scratching post and launch herself of the highest point without causing it to wobble, though it sometimes slightly moves as it sits on tiles. The bottom platform is made of wood and well covered. Definitely one of the best tall scratching posts I have found.

I ordered this a couple of weeks ago, my cats LOVE it. The smaller cats can climb up the side, they get so excited! Strong sisal, I find lots of old claw sheds so it's doing its job. I came back today to buy 2 more, but found the price increase disgusting, esp since they advertise it as being on sale, and it's gone up about 25%! It was a good deal at the lower price, now it's just another over priced item I don't need.

I have tried several cat scratching posts and all were either too flimsy or didn’t last and wore out. My cats also disliked a rectangular post I had...they prefer the round kind. Even my 15 pound Ragdoll scratches on this Midwest Nuvo Grand Forte post and it doesn’t budge and he can stretch his full body length. I have it placed in an area they must walk past to get to their food and they use it and not my furniture.

I bought this about a year ago but I just need to say - it's amazing! It's so sturdy - my little climber can go up and down with no danger of it tipping over. It's also held up incredibly well to repeated scratchings from both cats - it's not frayed or falling apart at all after all this time. It's quite large and of the 3 scratchers in our house it's the favorite. 10/10 would buy again.

This thing is awesome! It scared my cat at first but now he loves it. It truly is BIG. I knew it would be tall but was surprised at the size of its circumference. Will hold up to the antics of the most rambunctious cat!

My cat Billy is long! The height of this scratching post allows him to get a great stretch. It is sturdy and doesn't topple over, which is just what I need. Billy may be long, but he is sure not lean! The post lasts a really long time. Have bought two in the last 5 years. Super easy to assemble, and didn't take that long to receive item once purchased.

I needed a new cat scratching post because the old one I had was toast. This post is super heavy duty, it’s thicker and taller than the one I had before. I’m glad my cat will be able to stretch all the way up the tower when she uses it.

This is a great item especially if you have larger cats! My 15 pounder tall boys love using it as they can get a full body stretch and a good scratch. It is sturdy. Sometimes I surprise them by leaving a couple cat treats on the top which they do hook their way up the scratcher to get. The scratcher remains in place :)

This is very disappointing! I need cat furniture with large platforms for my maine coon... so I ordered this. I am extremely disappointed that the scratching post is literally unraveling. It is now 10 months old, but the unraveling began months ago. To compare, I have a cat tower that went through my last two cats and is now on my current two cats and it is 11 years old and it is not unraveling.
