Round Cat Scratcher

Cats scratch whether you plan for it or not, so the trick is giving them a surface they like better than the couch. This round cardboard scratcher does exactly that.

Built for real scratching

The dense corrugated top takes a hard raking without flattening, and the low circular shape invites a cat to climb on, turn around, and settle in for a nap once the stretching is done. It measures about 17 inches across, enough room for most cats to curl up fully inside it.

Stays put and lasts

It sits flat on the floor and holds its own weight, so it stays put mid-scratch instead of skidding across the room, and when one face wears down you can flip it and keep going. Light enough to move between rooms and plain enough to leave out in a living room without it looking like pet gear.

Cat gear that earns its place

Designer Pet makes the practical side of cat ownership, the scratchers, hideouts, trays, and litter cabinets, in forms that either tuck away or look like something you would keep in the room anyway. Many pieces are developed and tested with the team's own rescued cats before they go into production, so the proportions suit how cats actually sit, climb, and scratch rather than how a spec sheet says they should.
