This scratching post gives your feline friends a dedicated spot to stretch and play while keeping your furniture protected. The free-standing frame is wrapped in rope to provide a textured surface that satisfies natural scratching instincts. It features a weighted base to help keep the piece stable and upright during use, and the non-skid bottom helps it stay in place on your floors. This single-tier design works well in any room, from the living area to a main bedroom. It also simplifies maintenance since you can easily clean the materials with a cloth, mild soap, and warm water.
