Here’s just the thing to slow down that speedy creature racing through your living room! It’s a Kitty Speed Bump from Catpods.com. We absolutely love the one they sent us to test. As you can see below, the Kitty Speed Bumps have multiple functions: resting spot, scratching surface, bolster, and meeting place. The Speed Bumps are much heavier than you might think, so they stay in place easily, especially on carpet.
Kitty Speed Bumps are just the right size to give your cat a little place to mark as her own. By scratching, rubbing, and lying on the Speed Bump, kitty will leave her scent and scratch marks to claim her territory. Wouldn’t you rather her do that on a Speed Bump than on your furniture?
Kitty Speed Bumps are available directly form Catpods.com for $19.95. Use coupon code MODERNCAT and get 5% off all products, plus, right now, receive a free bag of Kitty Pucks toys with every order!

With five indoor cats running the course we could really use a speed bump to add interest and excitement to the obstacle course. I’ve got some really wild ones here… I know that they would absolutely love this!
May 3rd, 2012 at 3:53 pm
Exactly what we need to slow down my speedy felines!
May 3rd, 2012 at 4:34 pm
I wonder if the speed bump could slow my kitty down when she is zooming around my apartment.
May 3rd, 2012 at 5:13 pm
Please let them scratch this and not our new IKEA chairs!
May 3rd, 2012 at 5:28 pm
My senior kitties are more about reclining than racing; this would give them something to curl up against – designed just for them!
May 3rd, 2012 at 7:04 pm
I NEED a speed bump!!!
May 3rd, 2012 at 7:51 pm
Ah, my kitten just started scratching the rug and could use something else to scratch!
May 3rd, 2012 at 8:13 pm
My cat would love these!
May 4th, 2012 at 1:42 am
Purr-fect for my clowder!
May 4th, 2012 at 2:02 am
My two boy cats would love this scratcher. What fun.
May 4th, 2012 at 5:05 am
NEED a kitty bump! Peanut speeds all over the house!
May 4th, 2012 at 6:06 am
My boys are both full-throttle high-speed racers. They would love to add this to the racecourse for ‘pit-stops’!
May 4th, 2012 at 7:00 am
I could use this in my bedroom by the pretty rug that is getting shreaded by my kitty. This may be more enticing. It’s simple, yet practically shaped.
May 4th, 2012 at 7:51 am
My cats Rosemary & Mixi would love the speed bump, and I would love for them to have something to scratch on besides my mattress!
May 4th, 2012 at 9:03 am
What fun! Would love the chance to win these cool speed bumps!
May 4th, 2012 at 9:17 am
These speedbumps will DEFINITELY help my feline trio better adapt from being outdoor Texas ranch to indoor Brooklyn kitties!
May 4th, 2012 at 9:52 am
Maybe this would slow my Boo Boo kitty down
May 4th, 2012 at 9:52 am
My kitties love to rest on their scratchers, this one would make a good resting spot as well as provide them with lots space for scratchin’!
May 4th, 2012 at 10:25 am
This would be perfect for slowing down my kittens which means my old cats would get a bit of peace!
May 4th, 2012 at 10:38 am
My cats seem to prefer scratching things on the ground so this would be perfect for them.
May 4th, 2012 at 10:52 am
My 20 lb. cat prefers our furniture over every scratching post he’s ever tried. It would be wonderful to find something for him to use that would make us both happy!
May 4th, 2012 at 11:15 am
My kitties love to tear up my furniture and floors …this would be a blessing.
May 4th, 2012 at 11:57 am
How fun! I’m sure my guys would all make short work of those lol They love cardboard scratchies!
May 4th, 2012 at 2:37 pm
Did someone say cardboard??? My kids luv cardboard and would luv this:)
May 4th, 2012 at 2:45 pm
Yoshi needs this to relax and scratch when he wants too.
May 4th, 2012 at 6:07 pm
This is fantastic!
May 4th, 2012 at 6:26 pm

Winner to be announced on my birthday….would my kitties be so happy if we won
May 5th, 2012 at 11:34 am
This would go purrfectly with the arrival of new sofa and chairs so the cats would have something else to scratch!
May 5th, 2012 at 1:40 pm
My kitties need new scratching posts. These will do just nicely!!
May 5th, 2012 at 5:29 pm
My cats would love to scratch this instead of the carpet
May 5th, 2012 at 6:28 pm
As fast as my cats race around here, I could use several speed bumps!
May 5th, 2012 at 7:16 pm
This would be reallt kool,all my kids are always running in
and out playing tag with each other. They might slow down
some with one of these.
May 5th, 2012 at 7:41 pm
They way my cats run through the house sometimes I definitely need a speed bump!
May 5th, 2012 at 8:22 pm
This Rocks and my four kitties would love to use them! Pick me!!
May 5th, 2012 at 8:36 pm
How cute! Blends in nicely with its surroundings. I’m sure my kitty would love one.
May 5th, 2012 at 9:46 pm

May 5th, 2012 at 11:04 pm
My gang says they want one.
May 6th, 2012 at 1:39 am
We have 5 cats running around our house!! It sure would be nice to slow ‘em down with a Speed Bump scratcher!
May 6th, 2012 at 7:45 am
Hello-
I have the craziest cat. She climbs up screens and is constantly scratching my furniture! Please help!
May 6th, 2012 at 8:29 am
What a creative idea! My girls need a speed bump during their drag racing laps around my house.
May 6th, 2012 at 1:21 pm
Mine would fall asleep half way walking over it. They would love it
May 6th, 2012 at 5:56 pm
The kitties in the pictures look so happy! I am certain my three would be also.
May 6th, 2012 at 6:33 pm
my kitty Gus needs one of these so that I can attach it to the wall where he has scratched down to the wood (yes thru the paint and drywall!) LOL
May 7th, 2012 at 6:46 am
With three cats in the house, I will try anything to keep them from scratching the furniture!
May 8th, 2012 at 5:26 am
Wonderful Idea!
May 9th, 2012 at 4:53 pm
LOVE these designs! my three little furballs would love these!!!
