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.

My Cats love the Natural Paradise Scratch Barrel XXL
Quick delivery, only base and top to assemble (I had to push the screw down each time for it to connect before being able to tighten it). Lovely item, cats were in it within 30 mins of it being put up. Removable bed bases for the 3 slots are a bonus which I was not expecting. It's neat and tidy. XXL is quite big with plenty of room for my 6kg cats. Thank you so much.

Very Study cat Scratch Barrel
I Think I will have to purchase another as my lot have been queued up to use it. Very good size my 8kg cat has plenty of room to sleep in the cubby holes.
Disappointed with the bed fixing at the top, I only received it today so let’s see how it holds up, let’s see how long the novelty will last. Cats being cats lol.
It is very sturdy even with 4 large cats in it at the same time. I will need to rearrange the room to fit it in, worth the money paid. Cats used it as soon as it was put together

Amazing
We’ve had this since we got our 2 kittens, 3 years on it still looks like new and they sleep in it every day. Best cat buy!

Brilliant piece of cat equipment
Bought this as I needed something big,strong and substantial for mybigbengal boy and savannah lady and they love it. It's very well made and they have hours of fun and sleeping on it. Had some delivery issues withfixings n top bed missing but Zooplus sorted it rapidly. I made extra cushions for the chambers out of a luxury cheap throw and they love it. Sorted out the scratch pole issue as my boy was pulling the pole down due to his size. I would recommend this all daylong and will buy another.

Previous review
My previous review was for a different product. This cat scratch barrel is fab and is well used by my cats. 3 months on it remains in perfect condition.

Disappointed
No instructions or fixings. Only small pieces of Velcro to attach mats and beds to. Expected better.

Excellent Product
My two moggies love it and both take turns on the top spot. The loser uses the lowest spot. At the moment the two middle spots are being ignored but I'm putting that down to awkwardness of getting in to them. My Maine Coon likes it but only if he can get the top spot, which isn't that often as the two moggies tend to hog it between them. Buyer beware, it's HUGE and comes ready built in a ginormous box.

Excellent
Ordered this for my two cats as an alternative to a cat tree as their last one literally fell to pieces. This barrel is excellent quality and was easy to assemble. Love the removable cushions so easy to keep clean. It is so sturdy that my heavier boy can jump straight up with no wobbles unlike their cat tree. The cats absolutely love this. This is a fantastic product and such a good price for this well made product.

Cats love it
Simple to put together, very sturdy, looks great and most important, my cats love it. There is always at least one cat using it, most often a cat on each level.
Will get a slightly smaller one for my bedroom.
Its a big scratcher/den and will accommodate big cats, but takes up very little floor space which is very useful for smaller rooms. An all round winner

Fussy Cat Purrfect Place
As soon as the box was opened and the parts came out she was very inquisitive. My cat loves it! A 5* from Buttons the cat.

Worth the wait......
After a bit of messing around (first time in 6 years I have had a problem with delivery but turned out it was actually forgotten and zooplus went out of their way to fix the slip up) this finally arrived!!! I showed my two terrorists (1 Maine Coon and 1 Ragdoll) and at first they didn't even want to look at it but slowly, slowly curiousity got the better of them and now they play and sleep in this great product!! It is very sturdy and takes their jumping around in it - They love it!!

Luxurious
I am very pleased with this cat barrel and my two cats are getting accustomed to it. The ground floor has been colonised and the top level inspected and found good. I think it is the ultimate in luxury and could not be improved upon.

Wow! Best ever Cat Bed
I was a little sceptical at first regarding the quality and usability of the product. But I was not disappointed, Louie my beautiful Siamese Cat absolutely loves it. I've also got brilliant space saving storage compartments in the top two for his toys and use the bottom one for my Bishon Fise toys. Couldn't have worked out more perfect. Love love love it. Delivered in super quick time too! I'll upload a photo of Louie enjoying his new found advantage point so you can check it out for yourself.

Cats love it!
Arrived today. The packing was badly damaged, but the contents were fine. One cat watched me put the top on and then jumped on, the others quickly followed.Sturdy, stable and comfortable.

Game changer
Well this arrived today and my oh my the cats have gone totally nuts over it. Plenty of fun and laughs from us all watching them play on it - I don't think the elasticated pom poms will last very long but it was well worth the money - only wished I bought it sooner. Great product looks like it will last for years.

Great buy
My four year old persians have wrecked four other scratch posts but I think this one might beat them. Well for a while at least. It's the heaviest, sturdiest, best built yet.

Wow!! Great for BSH
Been waiting ages for this to come back into stock and finally got it. Well, all I can say is I love it and my two blue boys do too. As soon as I unpacked it they were straight in it . Five hours later they reluctantly left it for food and a play and then straight back. Delivery was amazingly quick considering it travelled from Germany. Packaging was great and the barrel is really strong and gorgeous looking. It matches the xxl cat tree I bought. Would definitely recommend.. Love Zooplus.

Fabulous Scratcher
Bought this for large British Shorthaired cats. They love it. It is firm and sturdy and covered with cream coloured sisal which they can use for scratching and climbing. Very hard and much better than rope. The top and the cushions have all been washed many times and still maintain their shapes.

Fabulous scratch post
Bought this for our three cats last month and they love it. When it arrived they were all very inquisitive to find out what was in all the openings. All three like to scratch on it leaving the furniture safe. The bottom is often slept in and our year old Jessie has claimed the top as her bed. Very well made and fast delivery. Thank you Zooplus.
