About Us

ScratchyCats is the home of quality cat scratching posts, large luxury cat trees and bespoke cat furniture. All our products are handmade to order at our small workshop in Devon, UK. We know cats, and every single one of our products is sturdy, strong and built to last. The 100% natural sisal rope we use is specifically manufactured for our needs from plant fibres grown in Europe. It's non-oiled, light in colour with minimal loose strands and is one of the key features that make our products among the best available in the world.

Each and every one of our products is our own design and built from scratch in Great Britain, nothing is imported. Choose from our large selection of quality cat scratching posts or ask us about bespoke cat furniture made to your exact requirements. When you buy a ScratchyCats product, you join the ScratchyCats family, and nothing is more important to us than family.

The ScratchyCats Difference

Fed up with poor quality mass produced cat scratching posts that your cat is not even interested in? Then you've come to the right place. We're so confident that your cat will use and love one of our scratchers that every single one of our products comes with our unique CATISFACTION GUARANTEE. Put simply, in the unlikely event that you or your cat are not entirely satisfied with your purchase simply return it to us unused and undamaged for a full refund.*

Since we began creating the finest furniture known to CAT back in 2011, we've worked incredibly hard to design, develop and build a range of high quality, robust and long lasting cat scratching posts, cat trees and towers. Each and every product we sell is handmade by us at our workshop in Devon, Great Britain - they always have been and they always will be! That's why we're more than happy to stand by our high quality craftsmanship and offer a warranty with every single product we build and sell.

ScratchyCats is a small husband and wife business with Martin working on the business full time with part time assistance from wife Clare. Nothing we make is mass produced, we don't import parts from China. Every product is made by hand at our small workshop in Devon UK. The only material that we source from outside the UK is our exceptional premium quality 100% natural sisal rope. This is without question the best rope for a cat scratching post. Nothing comes close to it. We use thick 8mm rope for all of our scratching posts (unless otherwise stated) as we find it provides the cat with the best scratching surface, they can really get their claws into it and it lasts an exceptionally long time. Many of our customers reporting that the scratching post has lasted over 4 years with daily use.

Our product range is like nothing else we've come across and there's something to suit every budget and every cat. Furthermore, because all of our products are handmade from scratch - you can alter and customise the design to suit your exact requirements. Another service that we offer here at ScratchyCats is our custom built service. If you can't see something that interests you from our product ranges then simply get in touch with us with your requirements and we'll provide a quote for building the design from your specifications.

It's our goal at ScratchyCats to provide a variety of different cat scratching posts to suit every budget. All of our quality scratching posts use natural, cat-friendly, premium quality sisal rope. Beware of mass-produced posts from other manufacturers that use poor quality rope or even synthetic ropes which can be harmful to your cat.

We don't sell to the shops - we only sell direct to you so you get the best possible quality assured product at an affordable price. Furthermore, we believe that we offer the best customer service experience and will be happy to speak with you further - whatever your enquiry. Get in touch and we'll be happy to help. Don't forget, you'll be speaking to the people that make the cat scratching posts, not a salesman in a shop who imports products from China. We care about our products, we care about our reputation and we care about our customers! I suppose we have old fashioned values when it comes to our business but we don't apologise for that.

Don't forget you can keep up-to-date with all the latest product releases, news and offers from ScratchyCats on Facebook and Instagram or sign up to receive our FREE email newsletter. We promise not to bombard you with emails and won't pass your email onto any third party. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in our emails.
