FUKUMARU 5 PCS Cat Scratching Boards, 11.4 Inch Width Ex-Large Cat Scratcher Box, Reversible Cardboard Scratchers for Indoor Cats, Cat Scratch Box for Large, Medium and Small Cats, Protect Furniture

I bought my cats other, much more expensive scratching pads, which they liked well enough. But eventually they wear out and need to be replaced. At over $100 a piece I didn't want the same ones, but the cheap ones always broke down quickly, and they were too small to support the weight of my chunky girl, who loves to lay on them.Then I found this. It's big enough for her to lie on, and very sturdy, too. The five layers of cardboard make it downright perfect. When one is worn out, I can just flip it over. When both sides are done, I just move it to the bottom and it supports the others. My fat cat loves it (her smaller sister does as well, but she gets chased off when she tries to use it), and sleeps on it all the time. She also loves to just sit there and watch her people. This is the best money I've ever spent on my cats. It's certainly cheaper than new slipcovers! The only thing I'd recommend more is pet insurance- which I sadly didn't buy.

Honestly, I don't own a cat. But a neighborhood cat who is not well cared for has been coming over for food and shelter this winter. I am a dog owner....so I really don't know a lot about cat care, but after the cat decided to stretch and sink his claws into the leather-like material on my recliner, I knew I had to find a solution. After reading such great reviews, I decided on this product, but was concerned that the cat stood up to scratch and may not like the standing position. I set this up in seconds, and the next time my furry friend visited and came inside, he ran immediately to this box, and started scratching away! Literally 2.2 seconds was all it took! Now he comes and snuggles in his box or stands in it and scratches away. PERFECTION!

Good value, size, quality. Lasts pretty good.

I got this for my cats in September 2022, to replace their previous one. They have a lot of options here to scratch, but they both really enjoy the feel of the cardboard. When one side gets used pretty well, I just flip it or trade it out with one down below. The cats love to lay on this box as well, but only when it's full so they're not sitting down in it. It works great, the only cleaning I do is to vacuum around the box, and it's so lightweight that there's no problem moving it. I could not believe when I logged on to Amazon that this ONE BOX has lasted almost 2 years. It probably will make it to 2 full years because I just flipped the last one. They've clawed up the side of the box a bit, but not enough to make a difference in how they use the scratching pad. I am extremely pleased with this product, because it works well, and it lasts.

My cats love these esp since they come in a box. And since it is scratchable on both sides of each piece, sothat is a benefit. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is the cost. Just seems pricey to me, but this is the third box I have purchased and until I can find a better price deal I will probably order them once more.

The media could not be loaded. Update: It is now May 2025 and this same box is amazingly still intact and in decent condition even with regular use by our cats and constant heat and humidity exposure out on our porch. I just have to replace the scratching pad from time to time, because the cats wear them down. A great value for the price and for the enjoyment it brings to our fuzzy felines.We purchased this on 4/3/2021 for our three cats and placed it out on our screened porch. All three of them love scratching in it, but one of them in particular (see picture) sleeps in it regularly and has pretty much claimed it as his own. Although the box has been on the porch for 4 months now (today is August 3rd), it's still in excellent shape and we've only used one of the cardboard inserts. I did turn the insert over when one side became pretty ragged. That's surprising longevity, given that it's on a screened porch in Florida subjected to summer heat and humidity. Although it's in a place where it doesn't get directly rained on, we've had rain almost daily now for a couple of months. The cardboard box is coated and that seems to be enough to protect it. I've tried a lot of different cardboard scratchers over the years and this one is as durable or more durable than any of them.Every now and then we sprinkle on a little catnip (see the video), but given how much our one cat in particular loves the box, I don't even think that would be necessary. It's now one of his favorite places to sleep. As a frame of reference, he's about 14 pounds - so a pretty decent-sized boy, and there's plenty of room for him.

My cats love these scratchers. It keeps a lot of the cardboard pieces that are made when the cat scratchers it inside the box. My big boy is 14.5 lbs, but can still use it. I ended up with two because they fight over it. It's helped. Just flip it over once it's been pretty used up. They last awhile.

I cut the top of the box it came in and made 2 scratching boxes for them to sit in! My cats love it! I have 2 pads in each and one off to the side. They love sitting in the boxes. Size and price were just right
