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.

March 23rd, 2011 at 10:32 am
BOX, LOUNGER, SCRATCHER…. ALL IN ONE??? PRICELESS!
WINSTON, MARCUS AND NAPOLEON All love it! What cat wouldn’t?
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:32 am
one of my cats would ADORE this.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:33 am
Azure would kill for this. I never met a cat who scratched things as much as her. The nip would have to be for Tonka. He is obsessed with deh nip.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:33 am
Annabella the Ragdoll would adore lounging on one of those! And it’s soooo classy for her delicate nails
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:34 am
awesome. My girls love cardboard
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:35 am
All recyclable, safe materials? My ModernCats give Two Paws Up and say “Yes, please!”
Off to check out their Facebook page now! They sound like a company worth doing business with!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:35 am
I’d give this to the first feral mom I foster this season…they seem to find scratching a great stress reliever for being confined in a strange place while raising their kits.
Thank you Scratch Lounge for your support of rescue. When our current scratcher kicks the bucket, I’ll know where to get a new one.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:35 am
No, I won’t share it with you. Go get your own.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:35 am
Wow, looks like the sort of thing my orange baby would love!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:35 am
Want!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:35 am
I can see my cats now….
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:36 am
With four cats I always need scratching/sleeping areas…
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:36 am
What a great company and what a great design, my precious 3 would love one.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:37 am
This looks like an ideal upgrade to the cardboard trays currently in use by my cat and chewed to bits.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:38 am
A Scratch Lounge would be a big hit with my gang!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:38 am
We have two rescue kitties who would just love The Lounge Scratcher… And I love that it is made in the USA – in our backyard (literally) Chicago! I also appreciate local companies that support worthy causes.
Thanks for the all-around great giveaway.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:39 am
Looks so comfy, my three cats would love this especially since they are professional scratchers and loungers.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:39 am
I wonder, if it is wide enough for my kitty!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:40 am
When my older girl Seven saw this Scratch Lounge she meowed, “Maybe if I win this I won’t have to scratch on that cheap scratch pad that slides on the floor every time i try to use it, damn my Robin.” Could you make an older cat happy please?
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:40 am
I have a couple who would love this even without the catnip!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:41 am
Miguel and Matthias would love anyone of these toys
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:41 am
LOVE this! And love that the makers of the Lounge donate to a spay/neuter clinic! Thank you!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:42 am
Great giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:42 am
Our cats — like most, I think — love anything cardboard. With its raised sides and of course the scratch-friendly surfaces, the Lounge would be in constant use
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:42 am
Oh, my Oreo would love to sleep/lounge/scratch this clever lounger. I respect socialy responsible companies.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:42 am
My cats like to scratch and they like to lounge, so my Jack and Tabitha could use one of these for sure.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:42 am
yeiii!! my two cats: Morena and Tulio will absolutely love it!! specially Tulio, a playful “teenager”
greeting from the beautiful mexico city !!!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:43 am

We’d love one of these! You can never have too many scratchers!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:43 am
Our cats will love this scratch post and I love that the proceeds are going to a deserving group. Many thanks for offering this.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:44 am

March 23rd, 2011 at 10:44 am
Looks great!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:44 am
Pretty cool, like everything else on Moderncat.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:44 am
My cat has an itch to scratch this!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:47 am
I have one!! but theres only room for 1 cat at a time so the others want one too! they love it
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:47 am
My kids LOVE cardboard scratchers!!! And the joy I see when I put down a fresh one is without compare!!!! Must have
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:48 am
all my cats favor the cardboard scratchers, I know they would love this one.
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:48 am
My boys would love it, I’m sure!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:49 am
With the way my two kitties love squashing themselves in cardboard boxes, I think they would love this! Sounds like a wonderful company. Thanks for the great giveaway
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:49 am
Excellent idea. My cats frequently sleep on the narrow ones I have. Double-wide with sides will be much better!
March 23rd, 2011 at 10:49 am
My two cats, Luna and Beau would absolutely love these, and my doors/rugs would say thank you thank you thank you!
