My cat loves this. As the cardboard gets old, it will flake a little, but no big deal. It works better than any scratching post I have ever had. Could never get cat to use the post. My cat loves this scratcher.

Pros: Cats love it

Cons: None really

Other than the fact that it's made out of cardboard, I am very happy with the purchase of this. The other scratchers didn't work, but this one does. The catnip makes it more attractive to the cats.

Pros: Cats can scratch

Cons: Cardboard

It has no byproducts, has real meat as it's first ingredient, no antibiotic fed protein sources and no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. And it passed my finicky cat's taste test.

Pros: great tasting, no byproducts

Cons: none

These make great scratching pads. They are nice because you can putthem anywhere in the house and the are cheap and disposible. When they are used up just throw them away and buy a new one.

Pros: disposible

Cons: none

We have a lot of cardboard scratchers in our house. The cats just love them and use them all the time. This double wide one has extra space for the cats to scratch and lounge on.

Pros: Lots of room to scratch.

Cons: Just a little messy.
