In addition to the Holiday Give-a-thon, we still have our regular monthly giveaway, too! This month we’re introducing a brand new product from the folks who make the KatKabin. It’s the SkratchKabin! The SkratchKabin has the same dimensions and design as the original KatKabin, but the SkratchKabin is covered in durable carpet to give kitty a nice big curved surface for scratching, plus a cozy nest inside for napping. The SkratchKabin comes with a little toy hanger and a sisal rope mouse for extra fun.

There’s also a removable pad with a washable cover inside. The SkratchKabin is very sturdy and measures 20″ long by 16″ wide and 13″ tall. The door opening is 6.5″ x 7″. The SkratchKabin is available in three carpet colors, oatmeal, blueberry, and cocoa.

The folks at Brinsea sent us a SkratchKabin to test and — just as I expected — it was an immediate hit, especially with the cold weather upon us. It’s the perfect size and shape for kitties to curl-up for a winter nap and the curved, carpeted surface is immediately attractive to little scratchers. Plus the whole thing looks great. It’s just “kitty” enough without being too cutesy.

EXTRA CHANCE TO WIN!
The December giveaway winner will receive a SkratchKabin in the color of their choice. To enter the monthly giveaway, make sure you’re signed-up to receive Moderncat updates via email. If you’re already getting the updates but you’d like an EXTRA chance to win this month, please leave a comment on this post. Complete details on the monthly giveaway here.
