Aibuddy Cat Scratcher, Tunnel Cat Scratching Pad Bed Lounge with Catnip, Durable Cardboard & Construction (50 x 33x 30.5cm)

This seems quite sturdy and the cardboard looks very compact and hopefully hardwearing. It comes with little bag of catnip. I put some catnip in it and my two boys loved it - the only problem being they both wanted to lay in it so caused a little bit of a disagreement but once sorted, one of my cats spent the whole evening fast asleep in the tunnel.Both cats love to scratch it and sit in it.

My cats use it to play in and sharpen their claws. It seems quite robust, but as it is made of cardboard, it will not last forever. The cats seem to enjoy it though, especially if I spray it with Joycat.

This is brilliant and great value for money, very sturdy and great for my furbabies to scratch. I have 3 large cats and it's ideal for them.

I am about to buy this for the fifth time - it lasts my large-ish cat about a year each time so it has become his regular birthday present. We never found a scratcher he liked until this one but he goes at it all the time.

Got this for my 6.5kg ragdoll boy for Christmas to replace his old scratching post. Had a few reservations from reading other reviews on this page, mainly regarding if it was going to be big enough for him. Safe to say that he loves it!! It's certainly big enough for him to fit and even turn himself around in it. It's also sturdy enough that it doesn't roll over when he rolls himself around and scratches on the inside. I now have a very happy cat!UPDATE: Unfortunately, had to knock off one star because of an issue that cropped up a little later. It would have been great if the outer rings were made of a sturdier material than cardboard; while the inside is fine, my cat seems to have a habit of scratching these outer rings and they already look worse for wear after two weeks. Thinking about covering these up with duct tape.

I bought one of these about a year ago on a whim, for my cat's horizontal scratching requirements, and it was basically like a cardboard hollow-tree-log, that he could get on top of, scratch up some, then flake out on when it all gets a bit much... and occasionally get inside of to terrorize passers by - and he apparently loved it.HOWEVER, cardboard-meets-cat-claw; As you can imagine it does wear down over time - and after about 9 months he had nearly drilled through it, so I got a replacement.This one (bought on this link) definitely isn't as "polished" as the original - you can see that its two sections glued together (which his old one wasn't) and the ends are finished with a cheap shiny brown "paperback book cover" like card that doesn't look great (his old one was just nude, smoothed off cardboard) - BUT - even if I hadn't had the old one to compare to I would still rate this 5 stars. Its sturdy, well tooled, there's no sharp/ paper-cut edges, and so far its stood up to a right going over - the fact he can get more pull on this fresh model that hasn't been ground down, means he's gone absolutely feral on it - Also Cat being a big cat, its just generally impressive how well its taken a beating.An unavoidable side effect though is that while scratching, flakes of card will come off like dandruff, and the area around it will soon build up with bits, even with regular vacuuming - so if you're fastidious and like your home spotless, this might irritate you - especially when you find little bits of card in places you wouldn't expect it to get. Personally though I'll take a few flakes in lieu of a damaged spare bedroom carpet, as he's pretty much exclusively taken to thrashing this vs other horizontal surfaces in the home. (And £40 a year plus a bit of vacuuming I was going to do anyway is definitely preferable to having to replace carpets!)I would just say though, that while I definitely recommend this - and would absolutely get the same one again when he eventually mines his way through his current one - it would be preferable if they sort out the slightly cheap aesthetic of the end-caps. Its not a deal breaker, its just that the older one I had looked 100% better (and realistically means that although it seems his old one is discontinued, if I saw one styled like it, I would get that, not this!)

This was a wonderful addition to our cats play station, however, one of our cats insisted on chewing and tearing it so we had to get rid of it, not because of the mess, but I was concerned she may choke. If you have a normal cat that will not destroy this item then I recommend it, as my other cats loved hiding in it as well as using it for a good stretch and a good scratch.

The media could not be loaded. I bought this fantastic cat scratcher for my cat Happy and it absolutely over the moon to have it.Happy is extremely happy and in love with this tunnel cat scratching pad bed lounge with catnip because of its sophisticated design where it can explore, play, rest etc. It also has scratching angles and a tunnel to explore. It's made of recycled cardboard, non-toxic cornstarch, safe to use and great quality.There is also a premium organic catnip leaves included and happy is pretty sure that all the cats will love it. Happy highly recommends this product and is meowing that you will not be disappointed.
