We have a new favorite lounge spot at home: The Scratch Lounge. Ando recently had a chance to give it a test drive (thank you, Scratch Lounge!) and he is quite impressed. The shape of the Scratch Lounge is just perfect for kitties to plop down in, with thick corrugated cardboard surfaces on the bottom and on two sides, creating a cardboard nest. The other great design feature is that all three cardboard pads (bottom and both sides) are reversible, so it’s like getting two loungers in one. And when it’s really done, the whole thing is recyclable.
The Scratch Lounge is made in the USA in Chicago, Illinois using all safe materials including non-toxic wheat-based glue to adhere the cardboard pieces together. And besides being a great product, The Scratch Lounge is made by a great company. A full 10% of profits are donated to The Amanda Foundation Mobile Clinic, which provides low-cost spay/neuter services specifically to the poorest communities of Los Angeles.
Not only does the Scratch Lounge contribute to The Amanda Foundation, but they regularly participate generously in lots of animal rescue programs and fundraisers, like the recent aCATemy awards adoption event where every cat received a free Scratch Lounge, and the HSUS Genesis Awards. The people behind the Scratch Lounge truly have the welfare of the animals in mind as part of their business plan! Stay up-to-date on the latest Scratch Lounge activities on their Facebook page.

Love the idea that the individual parts of the Scratch Lounger are reversible/multi-use! And the fact that it is box like! Can’t wait to get it here in Germany!

Our gang loves their Scratch lounge! They also said we’d like more than one so lets hope they are lucky.

My cats would love this Scratch Lounge. These cardboard scratchers saved my sofa, and this one looks like very cool.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:18 am
My cat, Shadow also looks like the cat in the picture, but he’s got a little patch of white on the neck. I think the design of this with the raised sides would be very appealing to cats.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:18 am
anyone of my cts would love this- I’d probably have to go buy 4 more for the kitties who are shut out!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:18 am
All of my cats LOVE to scratch and this would be wonderful addition to their collection. Purr-leeeze pick us, say Oliver, Julian, Emlyn, and Alasdair.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:18 am
my Porto would sure love to try one of those
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:18 am
My cat, Lillie, would be right at home with this great lounge. Hope she wins it too.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:19 am
My kitties would love to curl up in a Scratch Lounge!

March 23rd, 2011 at 10:21 am
My cats LOVE the cardboard for scratching. They would love this cozy lounger.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:21 am

March 23rd, 2011 at 10:21 am
Looming question: will our cats choose the Scratch Lounge over our vintage Danish caned chairs?
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:21 am

My cat would love one of these!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:23 am
Like I said before, my three varmints wear out their scratch pads in a month! I need this!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:23 am
My kitty loves sitting on her scratch pad, so this would be perfect for her!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:23 am
Awesome! Our cats would love it!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:23 am
My Jackie has already really worn out the original scratch lounge. She loves it and won’t let her best buds near it when she is lounging on it! Jackie would like a new one, please.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:26 am
This looks like a perfect idea!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:26 am
Looks like fun, said the kittehs.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:26 am
Wow, a scratcher in a bed box, 2 of my 5 kitties favorite things put together!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:27 am
I would love to have this!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:28 am
and it looks like my little zona too! she’d love to lounge and scratch this up!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:28 am
I’ve been looking for one of these and would love to win! My sister, a fellow cat lover, highly recommended this scratch lounge to us. My two cats are definite cardboard connoisseurs.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:28 am
Looks good!! Would love to try it!!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:29 am
Definitely would get used around here!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:29 am
What a brilliant idea…my cats are too big for the narrow, rectangular scratchers I’ve used for years. I’ll be buying at least one, and soon.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:29 am
The people behind the Scratch Lounge sound like a terrific bunch! I don’t know if Woodgie would like this, but I know a few cats I could give it to if you select us a bonus winners. >^..^<
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:29 am
Awesome! Ian would love it!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:29 am
My cats would love this!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:29 am
Wally and Scooter say “PLEEEEEEZE!!!” Man, they would love this. Wally loves to stretch out across a cardboard scratcher anyway.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:30 am
My kitties would love a Scratch Lounge! It combines two of their favorite activities!
