Highlighted Reviews

β€” moose

"My cat loves this bed and it’s always being my used! I had to buy another one after 6 months because they use it so much. The only downside is the scratcher posts aren’t sold separately so I have to buy a whole new one anytime it gets too well loved."

β€” Halle

"It does it's job but it is not at all sturdy so the bed part is rarely used, he only uses the scratching weekly."

Bottom Line
