Felined
A wide cardboard scratcher lounge that cats actually use to scratch (saving the sofa) and nap on. The sofa-protector that earns its place.

A scratching post only saves your furniture if the cat uses it. The Felined lounge works because it's wide enough to stretch out on, dense enough that the claws actually catch (the reason cats prefer cardboard over carpet), and comes with organic catnip to make the introduction effortless.
The corrugated cardboard on the Felined is denser than the scratchers sold in most pet shops, which is why it survived three times as long in our test. The cat keeps scratching it because it still feels good — a spent scratcher gets ignored.
Cardboard sheds. Sweep the flakes. In exchange, you get the most-used cat item in the house for a fraction of the cost of a tree, made from recycled material.

A cat tree that doesn't wobble, doesn't look like carpeted trash, and that cats actually use every level of. The one we'd put in our own living room.
AquaPaw
A near-silent stainless fountain that gets cats drinking more — and that comes apart for a proper clean, not a surface wipe.
LitterLock
A two-layer honeycomb mat that traps litter from paws before it reaches the floor — and folds open for a five-second clean. The end of the scatter zone.
