"My cat, Mr.
Bowie loves this post. I bought another comparably priced and
heavily advertised post and he would not touch it. But he
goes to this one many times a day. I am so happy with it -
I probably have to buy at least two more to save the
furniture in other rooms!"

"Just wanted to
thank you for the high quality scratching post. It was an
immediate hit. I appreciate the quick
service as well. I'd be happy to recommend you to other cat
owners.
Sincerely,"

"We ordered
the scratching post 3 years ago and it is still in Excellent
condition. Our cat LOVES it. I appreciate the
superb quality and very reasonable price."

"Skipper
gives the cat scratching post a workout a couple of times a day.
I can't recall how long ago we ordered the post, but it has
really held up well. Also, this big 16.5 lb cat has never come
close to tipping the post. We love the post; he loves the post.
Our furniture has never been happier. Thanks for making such a
quality product!"

"I
bought your sisal cat scratching post last year and just like
you mentioned, as I was putting it together, my cat started
rubbing up against it, and within an hour was using it....
I have just recommended this site to a friend that is having
furniture problems. She won't anymore if she buys this
scratch post....."
Thank
you, take care, Carol"

"Thanks so much
for the info! I recommended your product to my PLUMBER on
Saturday! He saw the posts on his way into the kitchen
(pipe leak) and was so impressed I gave him your website!
These posts sell themselves…really.
Thanks again for the
help on the puffs! They are the EXACT right size for
carrying around by our cats!
Happy Holidays,"

"I received
the scratcher yesterday-GREAT SERVICE-THANK YOU! No
catnip needed-immediately my two kitties began attacking it
and trying to rip it to shreds! This morning I
put it together and after trying to catch and eat the screw as
it revolved, they quickly leaped and shimmiedup and down it
for a good 45", 'til I moved to the kitchen.
My vet wanted to
know if I had a good scratching post yet, and when I described
what I'd ordered, she was impressed, so I let her in on how
I'd found your website (it came up first when I googled
"cat scratchers", as if you didn't know). I'd
looked at many other sites but went back to your company
to order. I hope she recommends your scratchers to her
clients.
Thanks again for
the good product and good service."

"The
cat scratching post arrived yesterday (Wednesday) and the two
cats are overjoyed! Our son said he had trouble getting it
assembled because they were all over it. My engineer husband is
very impressed with the workmanship, also. We will
probably need a second one before long. Thank you for an
excellent product!"

I have ordered your
scratching posts in the past and have been impressed by their
high quality and durability. My cats love your posts and really
appreciate the extra height! Yours are the best scratching posts
I've seen, hands down. Thanks for providing a fine product.

Sugar Ray
absolutely loves the scratching pole. He climbs up and
sits on it like the king of the mountain. With his extra
toes, its a great way to preserve the furniture without
consideration of declawing.
Thanks for a
great product obviously produced with loving care.

I want to
add my name to the many satisfied customers you have. We
have 4 male ragdoll cats and they are HUGE. For the
first time, they can stand on their back legs and
s-t-r-e-t-c-h to their full
length and scratch. Your post accommodates both their
unusual length and weight......and they LOVE it! So much
in fact, that we now have bought 4 of your scratching
posts and placed them around the house. The
furniture scratching ceased the day the first two posts arrived.
We couldn't be more pleased with our purchase. Well
worth every cent. Thank you for making such a quality
product.

The scratching post
we just purchased from you is a quality piece of furniture.
Our two Maine Coon kittens were climbing on it and using it
the first day. We have been bragging about it to the
breeder and our friends.

I
just want to thank you for making such a fine product. My cat
loves it and so do I. It is saving my door frames, furniture,
etc, and gives my cat a great place to scratch and play. I'm
hoping to buy another from you in the future. Thanks again.

I just wanted to let
you know that the scratching post arrived and my kitty LOVES it.
Believe it or not this was my first time to order online (though
I called the 800 number to actually place the order - talking to
a human being reassured me!) so I am happy to report that there
were no problems whatsoever. As promised, it does not tip
over when she climbs it and it got here before my new sofa.
Thank you for your
help!

To the TopCat
creator, Wow what a hit... We have a 6 mo. old we just rescued
and she loves it . She also has associated the little toy that
you sent with the post and keeps carrying it back to the post
and dropping it at the base to start her play session.
Thanks so much for caring about these little animals.

Hello there
Team TopCat! I am a HUGE fan of your sisal scratching
posts and this time around I'm buying one to introduce
my friends to the wonderful world of cats using
scratching posts instead of legs, arms, and furniture.
My cat loved the first TopCat scratching post within in
SECONDS of placing the post and base on the ground. It
was simply amazing! Thank you for building and keeping
such a wonderful product. I can't wait to hear the kudos
from my friends!

Hi there - wanted
to tell you my two cats just love their new post. They
were all over it the moment I got it unwrapped! Thanks
also for the little toy ball that was wrapped with it - it was a
hit.
I will recommend
this post to my cat loving friends!
Jean, February, 2008

Thank you. Today a
big brown truck came during the evening and dropped off a long
box at my door. I had much anticipation about the best
scratching post a savvy consumer could buy. So as you can
imagine, I quickly took the box to my room, busted out my
folding combat knife and sliced off the adhesive tape from box
flaps it adhered to. the box lids fly open to reveal a
promising product that works. Right away I grabbed the sisal
base model with both my hands and stood up as the box fell
away to the floor, a instruction slip floated downwards. Nero
my kitty was already interested from all the commotion. I
placed the product on the floor and sliced cellophane wrapping
away, I marveled at the quality and said to myself, this is
excellent craftsmanship. After the sisal post and the sisal
base was assembled, I read the well written instructions Nero
already grabbed. It was easy. Next, I tried using my toy laser
to entice my kitty to use the scratching post, and he
instantly used the post! I tried dropping a treat on the
recessed area on top of the post. Nero climbed up and got his
reward. Then I tried the small kitty twinkle toy which was
included. Just let me say, this toy instantly became his
favorite toy, as it seems, he carries it around the house and
plays with it. And this all happened that evening!
Thank you again for
a superior cat scratching post that meets a cats required
nature, your TopCat Scratching Post certainly took care of the
job.
Sincerely, Tank, February, 2008

A
couple of months ago, I bought new Parsons dinning room chairs
with fabric covered legs. Trixie, my 5 year Siamese mix,
immediately thought they were for filing her claws.
After "no" and "bad kittie" didn't
persuade her otherwise, I started looking at scratching posts.
The ones is the stores are petty chinzy and usually don't
attract cats. So I googled 'scratching posts'
and sure enough your site came up. Trixie loves her
scratching post. My son laughed when he pulled it out of
the box and said, "She's never going to use this
thing!" As soon as he put it together she walked
right over, stretched up and dug her claws in. She rubs
all over it, lays on it, attacks it, bites - it's her new
best friend. The best $70 bucks I've spent on her.
Thanks
for helping me to save my lovely chairs.
Sincerely,
Laura

I
have two cats, one is a large boy and I have a tiny girl.
The big guy has trouble with most posts falling over and has
taken to using the original wood trim in the brownstone. I
ordered the TopCat post and he couldn’t wait for me to get it
out of the box. He LOVES it and it stays standing :J
The little one loves to climb it - SUCCESS and
Thank you !!!!

I
received my scratching post last night and I have to tell you
- It's amazing! My cat Murray has never been interested
in any of the posts I have brought home. last night
he wouldn't even let me pull it out of the box before he was
all over it! All night long he scratched, climbed and
bit at it. And when he did relax, he laid on the ground
and rubbed his little face against it! My new couch comes
Saturday and I am confident you have already saved it!
Many,
many thanks for such an amazing product!

Thank you very much for this scratching post
-- I think it's saved my marriage and my cats! We have 4
cats who have destroyed several pieces of expensive furniture
in our house. I've tried a litany of scratching posts --
rope, carpeted, cardboard, horizontal, vertical -- you name it
-- but they just have had no interest. The furniture is
all that has interested them. My husband has been
furious and threatened to take them all to the SPCA -- I had
become an enabler, hiding damage when and however I
could. Finally I tried the Top Zat post -- at first
I thought it was too pricey and almost didn't do it (silly in
hindsight given I spent hundreds of dollars in $30 posts that
they haven't gone near). Now everyone loves the post.
They climb it and scratch and scratch and scratch. I
have a catnip spray that I use every once in awhile on it and
they go nuts! I never thought I could get them to ever
be interested in a scratching post. This is the greatest
cat product ever!

Thanks. The
order arrived today and my cats are already fighting over whose
turn it is to use the posts! I've never seen them take to
ANYTHING like they have already taken to these posts, and within
only minutes after they were assembled.
Thank you so very
much for making Christmas (early) happy for my cats, and me
since now they should leave my sofa alone! LOL.
Have a good Holiday
season and thanks again for making such a sturdy, well-built
product for cats. I will be ordering more at a later date.

The topcat post came
this week -- the kitties love it! They are sooo cute
playing on it. They fight for 'top cat' position and then
the one that wins likes to sit on the very top. It's
hilarious! And they love the little sparkly ball toy also
-- they play with it like it's a mouse and one will grab it and
carry it around until the other one grabs it away -- this goes
on and on! I promise to send you pictures of them --
hopefully I'll have time this weekend to take some good shots.
They're about 3 months old and still quite small -- amazing how
well they can climb the post and just sit on the top and watch
the rest of the worldfrom there (until the other one decides to
vie for 'top cat' again!!). It'll be very interesting to
see how they deal with that as they get bigger!
Again, thank you very very much for this fantastic
kitty invention,
Carole (and Rafael, and Samantha  and
Tabitha),

Many of your
customers talk about how well their cats took to your product
when it arrived. I've had 2 of your posts for a year and a
half now and I wanted to let everyone know that my three cats
STILL use them with as much enthusiasm as when we first got
them. A friend (and fellow cat lover/rescuer)
recently noticed them in my home and commented on how nice they
looked. It's true, after all their use, your posts still
look as neat and tidy as when we got them out of the box.
Our furniture looks neat and tidy too - thanks to your wonderful
product

..just a note to
say that I ordered two of your scratching posts, seemingly
just the other day and they are here already!!! They are
of quality construction and my seven (yes seven) cats are
enjoying them immensely.
Thanks you
for such great products and service!!!!

Just
wanted to say thanks for the new scratching post. We just got
it today, and the cats were on it in about 5 seconds flat.
They love it. So do I. It’s well-made, easy to put together,
and everything I expected it to be.
Many
thanks,

My cats send a
wonderful round of applause for their new scratching post.
They feel that they've never had a better post ever! I did
see the suggestion to not set up the new post for a day, but the
cat disagreed and wanted it set up NOW and "helped"
put it together. Since then, one has always been
scratching or laying on the post. They also say thanks for
the very fun toy and lovely smelling box to sniff and play in.
I thank you also, they are now not scratching the box springs :)

What a product.
The cats perch there, they use it as a launch pad to body slam
each other, they stash toys there and best, they no longer
explore the possibilites of clawing the rug!

Check out the kitten
on the scratch post you sent!!! They LOVE it.........not
to mention that funky yellow ball you sent. What the heck
is in that thing? They go WILD over it and fight over
it.......... I need another one!!
Also, note how lovely the post looks in my house! By far
the best looking post I have ever seen! My kitties thank
you - you saved their claws.

like the wood trim detail, and the post seems very sturdy for
many years of use.

Our newly adopted Siamese cat,
"Bucky Boy", went straight for your wonderful sisal
cat scratching pole, and never looked at the other furniture.
He especially loves that little fuzzy sparkly ball you sent as
an enticement -- it is his very favorite toy! He prefers
it to all the fancy, expensive toys -- it & plastic bags --
often in combination. He bats it across the room, charges
after it, captures it, then carries it back to his lair in his
mouth & wrassles with it, before emerging
again, using it for a hockey puck". Thanks for a great
product. If our other cats had these poles, we might not
have had to reupholster the chairs!
Sincerely, Evelyn, March, 2007

I wanted to let you know that I
discovered your product a few years ago when I was doing an
appraisal at a womans house. She told me how great the
product was, and I liked the fact that it was tall enough for
them to stretch. I hesitated ordering one because the
price was up there, but I did. I am so happy that I did!
I also realized that it is no more expensive than the tall
carpet covered ones at the pet stores - but the real
difference is that the replacement posts are so cost
effective! All of my cats love them, and even the
kittens I foster for a local shelter enjoy using them as a
springboard. I tell everyone I come in contact with
about your product. Thanks.

McGyv'er goes to the scratching post
several times a day and has a great, long stretch and then a few
scratches. He's become so fond of it, he lies at the
bottom, as if he's staking claim (and I have no other cats).
A couple of times, he's even jumped it and pulled himself the
top to see what's up there!
That little red sparkly toy you sent is his very favorite - he's
crazy about it. When it's lost, I have to go crawling
around looking under and behind all the furniture - he's really
bereft without it! That was such a nice touch, including
the toy - you certainly know what cats like.
All the best, Linda, February, 2007

The scratching posts arrived
yesterday (2/8/07). Before I could get them out of the
box Fernando (part Bobcat) was IN the box, holding on with all
his might! They like the extra height to the posts
- gives them a good stretch!
Thanks, Maxine, February, 2007

post as promised and our cats love it. Just wish I had
found this a couple of years ago!

Just a quick note to tell you that
my cats absolutely love the scratching post - the second it came
out of the box, they were both going crazy! They both even
sleep next to it! I am so impressed that both of my 10 lb.
cats can be climbing it and it doesn't tip or slide across the
floor. You have a great product. Thanks!

Your scratching post is wonderful.
We have had problems for years getting our cats to use a
scratching post instead of our couch and easy chair. We adopted
a new cat in October, and in an attempt to start out fresh, we
ordered your post. It arrived last week, and from the minute we
opened the box, all the cats are using it and leaving the
furniture alone. I was stunned.
Also, the little toy you included has my 8 year old couch potato
18 lb cat dancing and leaping for joy. It's truly a miracle.

I ordered your top cat scratching
post sometime last September
and it has been a life saver. My 5 month old Siberian
cat loves it and uses it every day. She has never shown any
interest in our furniture so I am very happy.

Thank you for the quick delivery! My 7
month-old kitten and 2 1/4 year-old cat both love
the first Top Cat scratching post I ordered, so since it was
such a hit with them, I decided to get another one
for downstairs. I will definitely recommend Top Cat to
all the cat owners I know.
Thank YOU for a great product!

Our cat is going nuts over his new scratching post.
The catnip has him climbing all over the post.

You don't have to thank me for being
a good customer. You simply have the very best product on the
market! Your prices are fair, your product is exceptional
and shipping and communication are outstanding.
I have four cats and this is the
only scratching post they use, and obviously enjoy.
So, I'll be back when this one
wears out. Thanks again,

I just received your scratching post
today. I was skeptical about your testimonials on the website.
But my cat went after it before I could assemble it! bShe loves
it. And I love it because she finds it more interesting
than the furniture.
I will tell all my friends who
have cats

Thank you, this will make a
wonderful gift for my parent's cats. Thank you for a
most outstanding product...we still love ours and it looks
almost like new in spite of all the use it gets.

Dear TopCat,
Thank you for your wonderful scratching posts. Our Herd of
Seven love them! Surprising, every single one of them took
to it right away. We also use them in our foster kitten
room so the young ones learn right away what fun they are to
use. Good habits are best learned when young! Did
you know that the TopCat scratching posts are also good for
napping upon?
With regards,
Deann, June, 2006

The scratching
post arrived today and is the biggest hit I could ever have
imagined. Thank you so much for designing such a
magnificent product. I have 23 cats in my home ( I
am involved in cat rescue) and am just so delighted. I
can not put into words how pleased I am as well as the kitties
this was purchased for. My youngest was attached to the
post before I had it together. There have been
several disputes so far because a few refuse to leave. I
will definitely make another purchase in the very near future.

I just received the
scratching post and Toby my Russian Blue kitten is in love.

to know that my Mr Knightley LOVES his TopCat sisal post!!! And
he hasn't TOUCHED my other couches or antique settee or French
chair!!! This is truly a miracle!!! What a great

other cats ruined two Ethan Allen sofas and a wing chair...ARRGGGH!!!!!
Mr Knightley and I thank you for his TopCat scratching
post."

"My cats love
this product! They were on it in less than a minute.
One is lying half way across it, scratching & sniffing it at
the same time. Very comical to watch. I'm getting
this one for a friend who just got a new kitten. Need to
get her started off right. Thank you."
Ramona, March, 2006

"Thank you so
much for this wonderful, quality product! Our big
Ragdoll cat immediately took to it - in fact, she literally
embraces it at times by laying partially on the base with
her front legs wrapped around the post. The height of
the post is just what she needs to have a really good stretch,
and our furniture is now spared. This
scratching post is well worth every cent!"
Connie, January,

"This product
really does work! I have two cats -- Barnum and
Bailey. Bailey would use scratching posts and flat
scratchers purchased from the pet store. Barney would have
nothing to do with them. So, I thought I'd try the TopCat
Sisal Scratching Post and HE LOVES IT! I'm now hoping that
adding the Flat Scratcher will take his attention away
from a couple of favorite places to scratch the carpet. Both
seem to really like the additional height so they can do a
full stretch.
I
tried your product and...I'M A BELIEVER!"

"I'm writing to
let you know how delighted we all are with your Sisal cat
scratching products. The delivery was made yesterday,
right on time as promised and the quality of the scratchers is
excellent! As you can see our new furniture is covered
with sheets...my two male cats (Tom Cruiser and Little Guy Foxx)
now have to learn to stay off the furniture; your
scratchers will help them along with some aversion therapy.
The boys liked the Sisal scratchers immediately and went right
to them. Thanks for good service and great products!"

"Years
ago I started looking for a scratching post such as yours.
I knew what I thought would be best for my cats but no one
seemed to know what I was talking about. I was so
excited when I found yours by accident on the internet.
It is especially important now that I have a large Ragdoll.
I received mine yesterday and my Angel and JJ took to it
immediately. Today when I got home they were so
excited to see me they both ran to the scratching post. It
was round enough they could both use it at the same time!
I think they startled each other since they could never do
that before.
Thanks
for making such a great post!"

"It took 30
seconds for one of my cats to make friends with your scratching
post! She went wild for it....rubbing, hugging and scratching
it!!! Our other cat went for it immediately and then ran off.
She is the skittish type, so that is very typical behavior for
her with anything that is new to her. Both the post and the
scratching pad are so solid and beautifully made. I just wanted
to say, thank you."
Zoe, December, 2005

"I just
wanted to let you know how pleased I am with our new
scratching post. Tommy was destroying all the door
facings in our house. He loved to stretch upward and
claw them. If I hadn't been desperate I would never have
taken a chance on ordering a post I had never actually seen on
the internet from a company I knew nothing about. But
your product seemed different from all the ones I saw in the
pet store here and I was desperate. Am I ever glad I
took the chance and ordered it. It is wonderful!
And what service!!! It arrived 2 days after I
ordered it. It seems extremely well made and is quite
attractive for a scratching post. We did have a problem
in the beginning. Scooter decided (even before it was
out of the box) that it was "his" and would attack
Tommy any time he tried to come near it. Great, I
thought--Tommy is my problem scratcher and Scooter won't let
him touch the post. Fortunately, after about a week,
Scooter decided to share, and Tommy has not scratched a door
facing in over a month. They both love it! I still
can't believe that our scratching problems were solved so easily,
but they were. Thank you for a wonderful product."

"I wanted to
let you know that we received our package on the 7th, which I
think is record time for shipping! You also replied
immediately to my email when I had a question before placing my
order. (I wrote saying I have 5 indoor cats, two of
which are not declawed and I needed to know how many I should
order.) It's refreshing to work with a business that does
such a good job and is so efficient!
Thank you! I will refer you to friends, and will place
more orders when needed!"

"Just want to
say how pleased I am with the scratching posts in quality and
the instant gratification it gave my cat's. I was doubtful
that my most destructive cat would consider destroying anything
but my Oriental carpets and furnishings, but as soon as I put it
down, he was all over it.
I was only able to purchase two, but when I have the extra
funds available I will order another. Having 4 cat's, I want to
protect "my stuff" as well as give them something of
their own to enjoy."

"We received
the scratching post today, and the kittens are already
scratching on it. They NEVER even tried the cardboard
scratchers we wasted our money buying, but as soon as I took the
post out of the box, the kittens attacked it with great
pleasure!"
Thanks! Scott, May, 2005

"I
placed my second order with you today. The first one you sent me
around six months ago has literally saved my carpeted stairs.
I placed it under the stairs and all of our indoor cats are
constantly using it (Not the stairs). The new post is
going upstairs, as we have one cat (Rusty) who will not venture
downstairs at all. I know he will use the new post and I
also know that the other cats will come upstairs just to use the
new post. We have three cat trees, one of which is 7 feet
tall and hollow. The cats use them somewhat, more for
sleeping on than scratching. They don’t use the cat furniture
nearly as much as the Top Cat post. Top Cat 90% Other Furniture
10%. Thank you for making this wonderful product!!!"

"Thank you for
getting the package out so quickly.
You provide a wonderful product and great service. I have
enjoyed watching my cats line up for their turn at hugging,
rubbing, biting, stretching, climbing and scratching at the
TopCat post from the minute it was assembled. (The toy you
included was a nice touch and has been well played
with--thanks). This current order is for my mother's cat,
I am sure she will like it!"

"I purchased a
very expensive cat condo with sisal scratching strips, as well
as several less elaborate scratching "cones" and
stands before I found your sisal scratcher and flat pad online.
I was willing to spend the money because I had just invested in
an entire living room full of upholstered furniture, and was
trying to save it from the fate of one of the sofas I moved out
of there. The cats had scratched one edge of that sofa right
down to the wood.
These scratchers have completely solved the problem. However it
is that you embed the catnip scent, it truly works (a
"tea" solution?)! The tentative claw pricks that
started to appear on the new furniture have stopped--and I was
spraying it with repellant, booby-trapping it with
citrus-scented stuff the cats don't like and all kinds of crazy
things. That kept them (and us) off of the furniture, but it
didn't keep the claws away until your products arrived. I could
hardly get the cats (I have 4!) out of the box!
Now I don't rush to the living room in panic when I hear claws
tearing; I know they are on the post or on the flat sisal
scratcher on the floor. I have been completely relieved of worry
after 25 years of cat ownership.
Thanks so much!"

"I was so impressed with the
excellent quality of the scratching post I ordered... my three
big boys, Harley, Poncho and Monty have been surrounding it
since I took it out of the box! And I took the old one
(discount store variety) out to the garbage can.
I ordered the flat one now so
they can stop destroying the carpet in my guest room, and they
don't have to compete for the other one!
I am bragging about your product
to all of my cat-loving friends now. It's been a pleasure
doing business with you...not only to you have an outstanding
product, your communication and shipping speed are far beyond
most companies I have ordered from. Thanks again!"

"I ordered my
TopCat scratching post on Sunday evening and I received
it Wednesday morning! I am very pleased with the fast
shipping and SO impressed with the quality and sturdiness
of this scratching post. Our newly adopted male cat had
taken to scratching on our french doors and also on our deck
post outside. He wouldn't use the door scratcher we
bought and the posts I found in the pet stores were very
flimsy - he is a big boy! Minutes after we set-up the
TopCat scratch post, he charged it and stretched
out for a full body scratch! He also scratches on the
sisal base and enjoys just rubbing his body against it. I
have set the post between his feeding place and the
french doors. He uses it every time he passes by! So
far no more door and deck scratching either. This is only
the second day and I am already THRILLED with my purchase. He
is too! I would recommend this product to anyone. Thank-you
TopCat!"

Hooty, March 2005

Thanks a million!
I have four indoor cats -- one of which is, or I should say
was -- a terror on the furniture and bar stools. Since
the post arrived, Grady, the destroyer, has eased off the
furniture and is eagerly attacking the post. Now, all of
the cats fight over it but they each eventually get their
turn. They love it. I never thought they would
take to the post like that. I have had cat scratching
posts in the past but nothing compares to your product.
It is indeed "Top Cat."

"If I told you
how well this post works, you wouldn't believe me. I have three
cats; one isn't into scratching much. The other two are
"hell on claws". We don't believe in de-clawing (if
God didn't want cats to have claws, he'd have made them
without.), so we just kind of gave up and watched as a couple of
chairs "bit the dust" so to speak.
Now...enter your
product. The chair hasn't been touched since...but your post -
oh my, how they both love it. So...we're getting another one and
a pad.
Thanks again for the
super products."

"We just
received our TopCat scratching post and less than four hours
after setting it up it's being used and I'm thrilled.
Like other owners have said, I wish we had this before we got
in new furniture. It's wonderfully well constructed,
very solid, and the "girls" were crawling all over
immediately. I have one dear cat who has really been
abusing a brand new chair and I was just sick about it.
Covering the furniture thwarted the scratching, trimming her
claws reduced the damage but she still had the urge to scratch
and no outlet for that and I really felt like I was being a
bad mommy. I just saw her stretch up and sink her claws
into it not ten minutes ago and really had to share the
happiness!!! I also want to compliment your company on
the prompt handling of my order (I had a tracking number the
same day and received the post two days after ordering it).
Thank you very
much for providing my family with a very nice product in such
a professional fashion!!! We will definitely recommend
the TopCat to all our cat owned friends."

"The
post arrived, as promised, on Monday, and before it was even
out of the box, Lenin (who was taken off the streets as a semi feral
kitten) was already sniffing and rubbing himself on the
plastic bag the post came wrapped in. Also as promised, it was
very easily put together. I am impressed with how handsome a
thing it is, as well as how quickly Lenin took to literally wrapping
himself around it, something he never did with the old one
(which made its way, quickly, into the garbage). It took Leo a
few hours to get over the shock of the new but he, too, by the
end of the day, was stretching himself out to full length,
rubbing his face along the top edge of the post. I swear I saw
rapture in their eyes. I can even see the possibility of
needing another one so that each fellow can have his own. I am
immensely pleased with the purchase. Thanks for the time you
took on the phone with me explaining the details of scratching
posts."

"My
TopCat post arrived last Thursday, and Sunny really likes it;
he took to it very easily. It's very nice, and much
softer than the sisal rope. Thank you for your kind
personal attention."

"My
cat, Calvin, absolutely LOVES his TopCat scratching post!
Thanks for making such a great product!!!"

"I have been
using a woven sisal scratching post from topcatproducts.com. It
is the best post I've found. All the 'kids' love it and a couple
like to sit on top. A foster in my rescue group, www.rescuinganimalsinneed.org
, put one in the foster room and they all started using it
immediately. All the foster cats and kittens in my house also go
to it right away. I like the version with the sisal base as it
gives them more area to scratch on. The woven sisal doesn't have
the rope 'strings' like the regular sisal posts."

"I just adopted
a twelve-year old stray who has shown no interest in playing at
all. Your flat scratcher arrived today, and he's been
playing on it ever since! He rubs it, rolls on it,
scratches it, and pounces on imaginary prey all around it!
I gave him a shoelace when I saw his antics, and he grabbed it
and started playing on the scratcher as you can see in the
photo.
I have two other cats who adore your posts, but this stray
needed the flat one. Thanks so much for your wonderful
products!
Sincerely,"
Alycia, November 2004

"We
want to compliment you on your wonderful scratching post!
You have a great product & we will tell the
breeder we worked with about it.
We
brought our new kitten home on Sunday & she took to the
post immediately. By the 2nd day she
figured out how to sit on top & now she usually gets to
the top almost before I can let go of the toy.
I
would also like to compliment your service – everything was
exactly delivered as promised.
Thanks again,"

"Please let your
production folks know how impressed I am with the quality of
your sisal scratching post. I had been using a Felix then
when I could not find that, a Karate Kat. Yours is by far
the best. And it shipped and arrived so quickly I was
amazed. Cats and I say thanks and keep up the good work.
I will pass the word to other cat owners (or should I say, cat
owned!!!)"
Dot, July 2004

Thank you so much
for this wonderful product!! It is the best scratching post I
have ever seen & I have tried many.
The kids Pookie & Bubba love it!! I wish I had it when I
bought my new sofa, maybe it wouldn't be shredded.
I will definitely recommend it to all my cat loving friends.
Thanks, Kaye

"I really
appreciate it when someone totally cares about what they're
doing. My Siamese mother and her daughter are spoiled
daily. and they deserve to be. For a moment, I think
they must have thought they were birds, the way they flew to
their new Topcat scratching post, and I ordered the one
without catnip to boot. I guess they know a good thing when
they see it. I have a lot of friends with cats, and I
regularly donate to adoption agencies. You are definitely on
my Christmas list of places I will be buying presents from.
Take care, and thanks again."

"My cats
love it, I love it! #1 it's tall unlike so many others
and it's obvious that cats want to stretch, not scrunch
down. #2 it's sisal, not carpet (why would one want
to encourage cats to scratch on a carpet post when you
don't want them to scratch on carpet on the
floor???? - plus it doesn't hold up to their claws). After
throwing 2 out (other brands) I decided to not scrimp and
went for the sisal base and I'm so happy I did. The
cat nip is a nice touch too, they went nuts as soon as it
was out of the box. Thank you x 100!"

"It arrived,
it arrived! Please let me congratulate you for this
quality product. It definitely met my expectations. Very
straight lines and what wonderful craftsmanship.
To be honest, I was a little apprehensive about trying one
more time to buy something sight unseen because I had not been
so lucky with catalog buying, but I am happy I did. I knew,
and specially after talking to you on the telephone,
that it could not be anything but good.
Best regards,"

"The cat
scratching post came this afternoon. It is great, all of

years ago. Thank you for the prompt service and the
great product!"

"I am blown
away. In a world of badly designed and cheaply made products,
this post stands (so to speak) head and shoulders above any pet

"Hi, Our new
scratch post just arrived. I have never had your product
before, even though I have had cats for many years. I
heard about your products at a Christmas party last Saturday and
looked you up on the internet. Well, I have to tell you, what
a success. My kitten rolled on the base, as soon as I
pulled it out of the box and as soon as it was assembled,
climbed it. I also have a 13 and a 5 year old cat, they
both are in love with the pole. They hug it, claw it and
fight over it. What a wonderful product. We are all
pleased with it and also with your speedy service."

marking it. They have not scratched the sofas once since
it arrived. Thank you!"

"Hello,
I picked up the scratch post this
morning at the post office. It was so easy to put together.
You really did make improvements to the Felix post. The toy
that came with it was quickly claimed by one of my three cats.
I have no idea where it is now, but hopefully it will turn
up at some time. My male cat has already used the post. My two
females have enjoyed smelling it, and I'm sure they'll start
to use it shortly."
Thank you for
making such a good product!"
Maria,

"Thanks TopCat. This is the second one we've ordered. Our kitties (all
9! of them) LOVE their post and so do we because they haven't
touched the couch since we got it. This one will be
"protecting" an upholstered chair in another room.
Great product!
Thanks again."
Lee, September 2003

"Just wanted to let
you know that the 2 scratchers arrived today and 2 of my 3
cats started to scratch on them while I was unpacking them.
The only reason the 3rd cat didn't was because she was
sleeping. It looks like they're a hit. Also thanks
for the cat toy as an added bonus, which they also love.
It
was a pleasure doing business with you. Thanks so much."
Bonny, September 2003

"I
received my Top Cat scratching post today. I love it and
more importantly, the cats love it. My cat had the
best time in the box, of all things. The post is a God
send. I have been looking for one since I moved to CT and
I will be ordering another one soon as I have multi cats.
I will also pass your company name along to other cat people and
places."

"Hi, I ordered 2 posts from you a couple of
months ago and I am very happy w/ them. I couldn't believe how
quickly my cats took to it. They haven't scratched my new sofa
at all! It was a great investment. Thank you and I will surely
recommend your product to others."

"I just wanted to
write you a quick note thanking you for your assistance in my
purchase of these two TopCat products. They are the best cat
scratching solutions I have found, and my cats are actively
using them! (What a relief!) My old cat loves the post, while
our new little one prefers the Flat Scratcher. I'll definitely
pass the TopCat name on to all my cat-loving friends and family."

"I got the
scratching post--nice to have one that is not completely torn
up. The cats like it and went to it straight away. They like the
box as much as the post, somebody has been in it since it got
here. I'm glad I ordered this one--very nice post and you are
right--no rocking. Thanks so much for your kind service!"

"Wanted to
write and tell you how much the cats love the post. No more
scratching the sofa here! Boris and Walter think the sisal
is much better. They even scratch it when we come home to
show us how happy they are to see us. Worth every penny.
Best,"
Erika, May 2003

"Hi!
I gave my kitties the TopCat Sisal Base Scratching Post tonight,
and they LOVE it! It was nearly impossible for me to
assemble it because they wouldn't stop playing with it.
The only bad thing is that they're being a bit territorial over
it. I'm afraid there will be no peace in the catdom until
I have two posts. So I'll be placing an order in a few
minutes. Can you please ship it as soon as possible?
Thank you! This is a great product!
Sincerely,"
Deborah, May 2003

"I wanted to
tell you after I spoke to you today, I did receive my post.
I also wanted to say it is the best thing I could ever buy for
her. She has not been away from it since I brought it
home. Well, that is not entirely true, she left the post
to play with the box a few times. You should advertise two
toys for the price of one.
I just wanted to thank
you."
Jennifer, March 2003

"I have a
5-month old kitten and I do not want to have him declawed.
I also do not want to have my furniture clawed, and he was
starting to claw our wicker chairs. Since I got your post,
both he and my 1-year old cat have been scratching it and
jumping on top of it. Sometimes they roll around it and
play. The both seem to really enjoy it. I'm glad I
took a chance on your product - it seems to be really working
and the kitten has not clawed anything else since it came into
the house. It's
nice to know you can have faith in what you read on the Internet
sometimes. Sisal seems to be what they really like.
I am a satisfied customer - thank you very much!"
Rachel, February 2003

"This is
truly the best cat toy that we own. My kittens love it.
I put their toys on it and they climb up over and over to pull
them off. They really use it. I appreciate the
great quality and especially love that they use it instead of
my furniture (so far so good!!). It was difficult
finding one with the quality of yours. Thank you for the
superb product!!!"
Diana, February
2003
|
"I just
have to tell you how GREAT this new scratching post is!
All my cats love it, even the one who is declawed (she was
already declawed when we got her). We have a big,
neutered male who loves to scratch on the wood support
of a shelving unit in our garage. I measured how far up
he reached when he was using that wooden leg and that was
approx. the length of your scratching post. That's part
of the reason why I ordered it - it could have even been a bit
taller, if you have in mind to make any additions to your
product. He made the transfer from our old scratching
post to the new post right away; no waiting for him!
Thanks again,
and you'll be hearing from us for a replacement when they wear
this one out!"
Glenna and feline kids Elke, Emmaline, Bebe, and
Ewie, February 2003

"Just
wanted to let you know that we rec'd the scratching post a
week ago and BOY! what a difference! I don't think I've
seen my kitties scratch on the furniture ONCE since we got it.
They truly do love it's sturdiness and the sisal's great
"traction". What a fantastic product.
I'm sure my veterinarian (a cat specialist) already knows
about you, but I'm going to be sure and tell her on my next
visit. She really tries to dissuade from declawing,
and this post is absolutely the alternative. I'll be
purchasing another one shortly for my home office --
since I've heard it's good to have more than one.
Thanks
so much for a great product."
Melanie, January 2003

"Thanks
so much ...I'm sending one of your scratching posts to an
adopter thinking of declawing because the cat is going after the
stereo speakers ... my cats LOVE the one you sent .. I'm so busy
just set up recently. Wow!!! They are swinging from
it .. giving it a good work out .. like the circular shape and
that the post really stays put ...
Many thanks,"
