FAQs
What if my cat doesn't like The Post?
Not every cat adopts a new scratching post immediately—and that's completely normal. Cats can be particular about what they scratch and often need a little time to build a new routine.
Here are a few ways to encourage your cat to use The Post:
Place it where your cat already scratches, such as near a favorite piece of furniture or along a commonly traveled path.
Play nearby using your cat's favorite toy to naturally draw them toward The Post.
Transfer familiar scents by rubbing a blanket or other favorite item on a panel.
Demonstrate the texture by gently scratching the fabric with your fingers.
Reward successful scratching with praise or a favorite treat.
Use catnip sparingly by lightly spraying or rubbing fresh catnip onto a panel during the first few days.
Most cats begin incorporating a new scratching post into their routine with a little encouragement and consistency.
Is The Post sturdy?
Yes. The Post weighs approximately 16 pounds and features a substantial 17 inch × 17 inch base, giving it excellent stability during normal use.
Our Head of Quality Assurance, Napoleon, regularly launches himself onto the side of The Post and climbs all the way to the top to perch. Throughout months of testing, The Post has remained impressively stable.
The Post is designed to stay planted while allowing your cat to scratch and fully stretch with confidence.
Do I need to assemble The Post when I receive it?
Very little assembly is required. Simply attach the base to the column using the included four bolts and Allen key. The process takes about one to two minutes.
The base ships detached to reduce shipping costs.
How often should Panels be replaced?
Panels are designed to typically last 3-6 months under normal everyday use. Actual lifespan will vary based on your cat's scratching habits and your preference for visible wear.
Can I replace only one Panel?
Yes. Cats often decide they have one favorite scratching spot. If only one panel is showing wear, there's no need to replace the entire set. Simply purchase a single replacement panel.
If you'd like to save by stocking up on replacements, or refresh The Post with a different color, replacement panels are also available in sets of 2 and 4.
