Cactus-Shaped Sisal Cat Scratching Ball with Base

This scratcher turns the usual flat post into a round green ball wrapped in sisal rope, a shape inspired by a cactus. It sits on a flat disc base, which keeps it from rolling, and a short cord with a small sisal ball hangs from one side for your cat to swat.

Sisal rope is a common scratching material, and the wrapped surface gives claws plenty to grab. Cats can stand up against the ball, hug it, or rake down the sides, and the rounded shape works for stretching in different directions.

The scratcher is about 7.9 x 7.9 x 8.7 inches (20 x 20 x 22 cm), so it takes up very little floor space and fits on a shelf, a table or the floor beside a sofa. Measure your space and compare it with your cat before ordering. You can choose a black or white base to match your room.

There is nothing to assemble. Keep it on a flat, stable surface and check that the base sits steady before your cat pounces on it. Sisal fibers loosen over time, so trim stray threads and replace the scratcher when the rope is worn through. To clean, brush off hair and dust with a dry brush or vacuum.
