This new scratcher-lounger combo called the Catwheel sports some faux fur, which I know most moderncat owners try to avoid, but I think it’s tastefully done here. The cozy barrel measures 16″ long and 12″ in diameter, providing a snugly napping spot on the inside and a tough textured scratching surface on the outside. Available in champagne, black, and rose — perfect for Valentine’s Day.

Order one today from The Sophisticated Cat.

not modern at all!
what happened to your stance “no purple or faux fur”? I know that back in March last year you had made an exception to this rule by presenting the Buddhabag. That had been justifiable to my mind. But this…. not tasteful! what happened to your sense of style?
please reinstate your old rule! better yet, please expand it to: “no pink, purple, or faux fur”

That is about the cutest picture I’ve ever seen. My Seesh would LOVE this in pink. To match her nose.

My little female cat would love this, she likes dark things to hide in, unfortunatley not many places cept the closet or under the edge of our platform bed to call her own. She loves to rub her face of soft things so this would be perfect soft and a place to hide what more could you ask for?

Ouch, @Tate! Don’t you think that’s a little harsh? I was just looking for something fun and fluffy and pink for Valentine’s Day
At least you’re keeping me honest, however! I promise to repent.

Come on, @Tate — what’s wrong with a little ironic juxtaposition? It’s not as if the site is being overrun with grim Victorian stuff.
My Eames-loving cat would be all over a Cartwheel scratcher. It’s just a little Valentine’s Day fun!

I like this but I generally look for products for my kids that can be washed. I don’t want to think about how this would look after a month of cat hair (which is hard to get up even with a vac). Other wise cute.
