New cat scratch post?

MrsE_2

I'm after a new cat scratching post.
If I buy an expensive one can the rope be changed so as it looks new again (make it look like new again) anyone do this?

I like this one

But I think the P&P is a bit of a p take

& I like this one

Any thoughts?

They seem hugely expensive? Mine's about 4ft + tall for the price of the first idk about replacing the rope but afaik you can buy that sisal rope so yeah i'd think it could easily be replaced.

I don't want a big one, I want one that looks unobtrusive in my living room & if it is noticed I want it to look like quite quality, IYKWIM.

we picked ours up really cheaply in comparison to the shops etc at our local bootsale, all brand new

I bought one for my cat and she doesnt bother using it.

If anyone wants it. Make me an offer.

why cant your cat use the corner of the settee, like ours always did? Saves buying a scratch post!

How's that for moneysaving??

a great website for cat towers is zooplus, i think they're in Germany but i got my tower in 2005, it arrived really quick and is still going strong and wasnt too expensive either

Thanks but I'm really not after a big one, I'm after a small but great quality one.
