im looking for a decent scratch post, or what seem to be called cat activity centres.
im looking for something that can fit into a corner that is fairly tall, but lots to do. the base cant be any bigger than 50cm.

anyone know of any decent ones, that will last and are of good quality, rather than the cheaper looking ones.

I've got a cordoba one Jenny which is great, it has 3 platforms, 2 box caves, 1 'frying pan' and a lookout post.

Here is a link to what it looks like!

Well Lidl do excellent ones - but your about 2 weeks too late, :( they had them on special offer £20. Good quality too. I'm sure the'll have them on offer again soon. :)

Its slimline but all the way to the ceiling and the cats love it. And you cant go wrong with £25 can you?!

do the ceiling ones screw into the ceiling? how do they stop from toppling over

i quite like this one, but its expensive dont u think. alot of the ones that i like that are cheaper, the base is too big.
needs to be 50cm.
this one has the advantage of turning it sideways as such.

That is a nice one!!! The thing is, I looked at the cheaper ones and I don't think they would have lasted 5 mins with my 3. I saved up for 4 months to buy my one that they have and it was £80 but well worth every penny!

The ceiling ones just tighten upto the ceiling but I find its best to reinforce it using screw/brackets as well, as you can imagine a couple of cats playing zoomies up it can make it teter a bit!

I have a zoo plus post, my cats love it, and sometimes 3 or all 4 of them are on it, either laying on the top, in the box, or on another platform. It is strong and sturdy, we have had it a few years and it is as good as new. A real bargain, I'm so pleased with it.
