Tiger Tough Scratching Post 22.5-in Faux Fur Cat Tree, Brown

My cat loves playing with the balls in the bottom ring. She is so smart, she pulled all the balls out the very first time she saw her scratch post. She also loves laying on the top and looking out the living room window. This is sturdy for her.

At first, I got one with a defective screw, so it was unstable and constantly leaning to the side. I emailed Chewy and they had a replacement out to me within a week and said if the old one was salvageable to donate it. Unfortunately, it was not, but I was really impressed with their quick response and turn around time! The second one that came is perfect. It is strong and holds both of my cat's weight, although I will say they have not tried sitting on the top part or anything, just attacking/jumping on the scratching post part. I am really happy with the replacement, and I will definitely be purchasing from Chewy again not only because of the product but also because of their customer service At first, I got one with a defective screw, so it was unstable and constantly leaning to the side.

This tree looks and feels good and is easy to assemble, but the design makes it impossible to make the tree sturdy enough that it won't shake under the weight of my 10 pound cat, which is a fairly normal sized cat. The tree almost tipped over the first time my cat jumped to the top of it due to the size of the base (a little too small). After one time on the tree, my cat hasn't gone near it in a week. The top is also a little small (again, my cat is not that big). This tree would probably be fine for a kitten, but I'll be taking it apart and using the pieces in a better design that I make myself.

I have a larger cat (18 lbs) and it's not as sturdy as I 'd like it to be. Very wobbly. He''s afraid to get on it. If I put him on it, he comes right down.The top platform is not large enough. I think if you have a smaller kitty it would be fine. Found it easy to assembly (had all the pieces).

When we opened it my kitty started playing with the balls and had a lot of fun. The only reason Im not giving it 5 stars is because she hasn’t used the scratcher yet but we only had it for 2 days, she probably hasn’t noticed it’s a scratcher but she loved the balls! I would recommend it!

This cat tree is fine. I wish it were a little sturdier, but so far my cats haven't managed to knock it over (my heaviest cat weighs 11lb). It doesn't take up a lot of space and it gives my cats a window seat, which is all I wanted. My 2-year-old cat likes playing with the dangling pom pom and they both prefer the sisal-type scratcher, so that's good. The younger cat figured out how to get the balls out of the base the first day I set it up, and then she lost interest in them after I put them back, so they're kind of useless, but, like I said, it performs its required function so I'm perfectly satisfied.

Very easy to put together. Zumba loves it. Probably only good for small cats and kittens

My Aunt Bonnie said her cats love it. They climb on top and rest. Swipe at the ball hanging down

First of all, none of the hardware came to put it together, and then when I had to go on a wild goose chase to try to BUY the hardware, none of the holes drilled into the pieces were fitting to the pieces they described for the hardware! I'm very unhappy and disappointed in this purchase!

I couldn't even put this together. The screw on the actual scratching post would not go into the ball pit thing, it just kept turning and turning and never tightening. I reached out to the company's service email for help, so I am hopeful they can provide new parts.
