TIAKI Starcats Coffee Scratching Den

Putting it together was a bit tricky and unfortunately the lower part tore because there was too much tension. I assembled it from the bottom up, maybe that was the mistake, but now it’s happened. I stuck it back together with packing tape and it does the job.

No matching parts were included; the cardboard stand was rectangular and the cardboard inserts were round. So no matter how you turned or twisted it, it just didn’t fit. Now I’ve just put the round scratching cardboard on the floor, which my cats like to use.

Assembly was really easy... but the top platform collapsed straight away after standing on it just once, which is a real shame. Overall, it looks great and my cats love using it.

I honestly expected more. As mentioned in other reviews, it’s really just cardboard. When I tried to insert the bottom level, the “cup” tore because the board is simply too big to fit. The “cup” also tore when I put in the second level. My cats do use it and it looks okay, but you can tell from a distance that it’s all cardboard, since it has several unsightly creases. It’s a shame, because I really liked the idea and the design.
