I'd bought 3 scratch posts prior to this and my cat ignored them all as none were tall enough for a good stretch. A friend suggested I have a look on zoo plus - so glad I did. My cat is average sized 4.5kg. She launches herself at this post and loves chasing her way to the top and back down again. It wobbles when she dives onto it but the wide base holds it firm. The base was larger than I anticipated (although I should have realised it would need to be given the height of the post!) this is the best purchase I have ever made for kitty.

Our 1 year old beast loves this scratch post. He can have a good old stretch, even though he can now reach the top and it's sturdy enough for him to perch his 7kg of body on top without out it wobbling or falling over. An absolute must for Maine Coons & other large breeds.

...it last 3 days only. The pole got detached from the base and I couldn't attached again. The hole in the base was loose. I just ordered a replacement. Hope it will last.

My 2 Ragdoll cats (4 years old) love this as they can stretch as they scratch and it's pretty sturdy, wobbles a bit as they're quite aggressive with it! My new Maine Coon kitten also loves it, jumping on it and climbing all the way to the top to sit lookout. It's well used so starting to fray but I'll definitely purchase another.

Cats love it but rope not glued to tube so only lasted a couple of weeks with my 3 bengals...

My two cats absolutely love this scratching post, they play fight around it and both love climbing to the top and sitting there like king of the castle. My only problem is that the sisal rope around it is now leaving gaps and I seem to end up with a lot of black fluff on the carpet surrounding the post and I have only had it about two months.

.... the sisal rope is very thin on the ground. Will have to get some new sisal and start again because there are large gaps in between each wrap. Cat loves it tho, and enjoys sitting on the top so for this reason, it's a good buy. I wonder if this review will get published? I'd already left a review which wasn't used and am beginning to suspect that they do not like to put up reviews that are less than glowing....

The sisal isn't wound tightly and it's a bit sparse. Had the post for a week and within a day of occasional scratching, there are big gaps and it's coming loose. However, our cat likes the size, likes climbing to the top and perching himself there so in that respect, it's a good buy. Will just have to replace the sisal myself.

I bought this for my 2 birmans who are to big for the normal size posts, despite having floor to ceiling cat trees my male decided to start scratching the walls when he stretches. This has cured the problem, he can stretch, scratch and chase his sister to the top. Even when they are both climbing it doesn't wobble and they have a combined weight of 11 kilos! Fantastic !!

I bought this after a family member told me to buy one as my sofa was getting ruined. It arrived after only three days after ordering in a large package and it was very easy to assemble. Only a screwdriver was needed. It is about 4ft so beware of the height. I knew it was going to be this big but friends are shocked. The base is very strong so it can take the weight of the post. I absolutely love it! The plush material on the scratching post at the bottom is so soft that I couldn't believe the product was only £25! Most things I buy for my pet don't really go with my decor but the lovely light grey really does. My indoor cat is almost two years old so I was worried she wouldn't take to it. She was a bit scared of it at first but I coaxed her by putting little 'Dreamies' treats in the scratching post grooves.A few hours later she was climbing all over it and doing acrobatics! My sofa hasn't been touched since! Final comment about this post: It helps my indoor cat to burn her energy at night time. My cat sleeps all day so at night she's always restless and wants to play while I want to sleep. I have had frequent night attacks from my cat by playing with my ankles. Since, I purchased the post, I have had hardly anything. A* Zooplus!

We got this as our 5 month old Maine Coon was becoming too long for our average cats scratch posts. As soon as it was out the box and put together he was straight to the top having a clean. Not only was it his scratch post it was his climbing frame to.

It's a wonderful tree, nice and tall and robust for even the chubbiest of BSH's, of which I have 4 lol. Only down side it that the sisal very quickly headed south leaving gaps all up the tree exposing the cardboard. I'm a neat freak and this is annoying me now. But given the very reasonable price I may well just buy another.

Got this scratch post as an early christmas present for my two cats, Lennox and Levi. They both absolutely love it! It's well made and looks fab - the colours even go with the decor in my living room! A great purchase! Just noticed it's been lowered in price yet again, absolute bargain - for the quality, I would have been expected to pay over the odds for this! Have recommended it to all of my cat lover friends (who I believe have already put in orders!)

After we brought home our gorgeous RSCPCA rescue cat, she was scratching and shredding everything in sight, including my new sofa and my antique dining room chairs. Five minutes after I screwed the scratching post to its base and stood it up, our cat started scratching it without any encouragement from us, and then used it four times in the next hour. Now when she's running around the house, she loves hurling herself at the scratching post and climbing it as if it were a tree trunk (we actually find this very entertaining). I dangle a toy at the top and she climbs all the way up and sits there. I positioned it near the dining room chairs and she has stopped scratching them (hooray!). I often find her happily stretching and scratching against the scratching post. It's a much wider and taller scratching post than the standard ones, so check the dimensions before ordering it. But it actually looks attractive and can fit in a corner. I'm very grateful to Zooplus for saving my chairs and my new sofa and making my cat so happy!

Excellent product, my cat loves it, would definitely recommend. Swift and speedy delivery, easy to assemble... If your cat loves to stretch buy this you won't be disappointed.

It's huge! I'd expect a price tag of around £80 in the pet shops for an item like this so needless to say I'm very impressed indeed.

Very pleased with this massive post bought about 6 months ago. For the first day, he wasn't sure about it (he was only a kitten then), but soon got braver and he absolutely loves it. He plays on it, sits on it and sometimes sleeps on the carpeted base. It's still in good condition, despite a lot of use, but if it ever falls apart, I'll be buying another one the same.

Bought this over a year ago and its been great. My one cat is too tall for the little scratching post and loves to stretch up walls with his claws. My walls are hardly touched now as he using the post. The littler cat loves to sit on top and survey the room. Would recommend to anybody

Bought this for my 5 cats I was amazed at how big it was its so good all my cats use it and the one who used to stretch up at the walls no longer does this as he now has this amazing tall scratch post!

My 5 months old is using it all the time for climbing and scratching,or just sitting on top of it and observing.Very good quality,simple to assemble and not too heavy.
