Playground-N-Lounge Scratching Post

This product arrived with two of the three hanging balls unattached. I hot-glued them back on. The product is very attractive and my three month old kitten loves it. Here's the problem....we have had it two weeks and I have had to re-glue almost the entire piece top to bottom. The jute cord is attached with what can only be dollar store spray glue. If a three month old kitten can completely tear all the cording/jute off both top and bottom circles then this company clearly did NO research before sending this out. It is attractive so go ahead and order it......but get your hot glue gun out and get ready.....you will have to completely remake this very soon.

I was skeptical about the price for this, since my cat tends to destroy any scratching post he gets near in record time. But to my amazement, it's latest longer than any other, and he adores it. He even uses the little hammock part on the top! The only part that was iffy was the seagrass on the very top, which wasn't glued down well and has since come off completely. But I don't think it's really made any difference to him.

I have bought 4 of these now, and each has lasted at least 6 months. The cat tears them apart, saving a ton of wear and tear on the furniture. No rug component, which we like as it's less messy. You can trim the sisal down as the cat shreds it. I have also used my staple gun to reattach the upper cloth sling, which extends the lifespan. This is the only scratching post we buy.

I've bought my cat tons of scratching posts. The only one he will use is this one. I don't know why. Over the last 6 years I bought one of these once a year and hes a happy cat
