Cat Craft Cat Scratching Post Carpet Scratching Post 40″ for Indoor Cats, Tall Cat Scratch Post, Carpet Cat Scratcher with Replaceable Toys, Sturdy Base, Large, Light Gray

Was easy to put together but I suggest making two modifications: 1) use the longer 4” threaded pipe in the middle and the shorter 3” one at the top to give it more stability (the direction state the opposite), 2) put padded felt tabs on the bottom because the bolt and washer are not inset into the base and it looks like it’s a prime setup for scratching my wood floor without them.My 15 lb Maine Coon started scratching on it even before it was put together. He is not a fan of sisal rope so I am happy this is carpeted. He is also long so the height of this allows him to get a good stretch. The base isn’t particular heavy but it seems to be big enough to kee the post upright. He has some vigorous scratch sessions and it’s holding up well. I didn’t bother attaching the little toys that come with it but there is one he likes to play with on its own so that was a bonus.Edit: one year later. My cat continues to love this. The carpet on the bottom part remained perfect but the top part split and definitely showed wear after one year. He is long so the top part gets the workout. We just replaced the carpet and it was good to go.This is tall and sturdy enough for him to climb on and hang from for a while. He also runs and jumps on it and it does not fall over with his weight.I’m increasing my original rating of 4 stars to 5 because I want a scratch for another room and at this price it just makes sense to buy this again.
