I have two typical box loving cats, but delivery boxes aren't as pleasing to look at as this one is. The beach theme is really cute. I love how easy it was to put together. It's as simple as unfolding the main box part and putting the scratch pad inside. The corrugated scratch pad is double sided, so you can just flip it when one side gets worn out. One of my cats is 10 pounds and the other is a hefty 16 pounds and they both love this box. I barely had it put together and they were already clamoring to get in. The box is compact and great for small areas. It's sturdy and easy to move around without coming apart. I'm getting a second one so they each have their own because they like it so much. If they aren't walking around I can find one or the other in this little scratch box!

It took my cat only minutes to decide this was for her - only slightly longer than a standard shipping box that she claims when packages arrives. I was thrilled at how simple this was to put together. The frame came in one piece. Just pull the folded frame open and push the bottom down. Then you take the square scratcher board and place it inside. Unlike standard scratcher boards, It doesn’t have the look or feel of one of those cardboard ones that shred all over the place. So far my cat hasn’t even realized it is a scratcher. She thinks it is just a base to lie on. As with any of these, a small packet of catnip is included. I sprinkled a small amount on the base. But because the scratcher base is made differently, it just sits on top.

There is always a line for the cat house! So easy to put together (literally took 5 seconds) and cats were drawn to it right away! I appreciate that it is big enough for both our small boy and our chunkier boy 😅 It's very thick, quality cardboard with with a glossy finish so it seems like it's going to hold up well for some time! Mine didn't come with the catnip that it said it would, but have so much on hand that it wasn't a problem for us.

I have two cats and as soon as I set it up they started fighting over it. Both of the cats are bigger and don't always fit in other boxes but this one worked well. I'll need to buy another!

The beach-themed design is adorable, and the cardboard material is sturdy and well-crafted. Cats seem to have a natural affinity for this type of cardboard structure; it serves as both a cozy, quiet nook for a nap and a scratching surface for sharpening their claws—a perfect, private little haven for your cat.

To be honest, I almost didn’t select this cardboard cat bed, as it doesn’t look very impressive in the photos. I’m glad I did however, my cats flipping love this bed scratching post hybrid thing. We have four cats and they all try to hog it, they ditch the expensive plush cats beds for this little cardboard box. The cats definitely have a preference for it for some reason. I worry about the durability as it is cardboard but so far, it has been sturdy enough to hold up to regular use. It’s on the small size but our big cats manage to fit and prefer it. They do also use it for scratching but really love it as a bed. There is always a cat in it, they love it!

This little cardboard cat house was a hit in my home because it combines two things my cats already love, hiding in a box and scratching cardboard. The beach design is adorable and makes it look more intentional than a plain scratch pad sitting on the floor. It is light enough to move between rooms, but it still gives them a cozy enclosed place to settle down. The opening is large enough for my cats to walk in and out comfortably, and the enclosed shape gives them a quiet spot to watch the room without being fully out in the open. One of my cats was more interested in the scratcher at first, while the other went straight inside to investigate the little hideout. It has been nice having something that works for both play and naps. The corrugated scratch pad has a satisfying texture and gives them a place to dig their claws instead of choosing furniture or rugs. As with most cardboard scratchers, a little loose cardboard dust can collect nearby after regular use, but it is easy to sweep up. I also appreciate that the scratch area is integrated into the house, so it does not take up extra floor space. This is a fun choice for cat owners who like adding a little personality to their pet supplies. It works well as a small retreat for lounging, scratching, and general cat supervision of the household.

Took only seconds to set up. My cat was immediately obsessed with it, and started scratching away. I love that it came with catnip to make it more intriguing to the cats.

I actually think my cats are going to love this once they stop finding it suspicious. They already love laying on regular cardboard so placing this by the heat vent in winter is going to be a hit. It was really simple to put together and cute too with the designs of the cats at the beach. Having the catnip included definitely makes the cats interested. I feel like its plenty safe for the cats and its stable too and doesnt shift or rock around. It is a little bit pricey for cardboard, but its designed well and is useful for cats to lounge and scratch on.

We got this because I liked the beach theme, but I wanted to review it because of the scratch pad. It seems to hold up really well to scratching and it being white is a nice change of pace from the typical brown.
