Diogenes Scratching Barrel - XL

The Diogenes Scratching Barrel XL offers your cat lots of ways to play and sharpen its claws. This roomy barrel is particularly suited to larger cat breeds. It also provides enough space for a whole family of cats to hide away. The outside of the barrel is covered with hard-wearing, natural sisal which your cat can use to sharpen its claws and have a good stretch. 

There are three entrances with plush fabric trim that your kitty can use to climb into the dens inside the barrel. The lowest and the middle dens are connected to each other through a hole. The cosy bed at the top with a high edge is perfect for your cat to look out over its surroundings or to daydream and have a snooze.

Important information: As an added safety measure to support any cat tree as well as to prevent it accidentally tipping, we recommend using a wall bracket to secure the cat tree. You can purchase the wall bracket from zooplus. Please click here for further information: Cat Tree Wall Bracket. Please check the product regularly for any damage, loose joints or screws and replace the item when it becomes defective to avoid any harm coming to your pet.

Tips for fixing to the wall: Check that the condition of the wall in the desired place is suitable before affixing brackets to the wall. Materials for mounting brackets are not included. We recommend that you purchase screws and wall plugs that are specifically designed to suit your wall from a specialised shop. Use special wall plugs and screws for concrete, hollow walls or plasterboard. Check the stability of the cat tree before allowing your cat to use it. Check the stability regularly and tighten the screws when needed.
