I've never gotten my cat to scratch one of these. A log from the yard screwed to some sort of flat base seems to work better.
This sounds good, but I've tried it and the SmartyKat SuperScratcher (made by Worldwise) is better. Not only is the cardboard recycled but it also comes with a healthy serving of certified organic catnip as well. Check out the company at www.worldwise.com, I also like their bags of catnip and their cat toys -- everything has some sort of environmental benefit.
