Would this work on a cat condo to wrap around pillars for scratching?

Definitely! That's a great idea. If I were in an actual store, with several rope options, this is the rope I would choose for a project like a cat scratching post.

Yea it works great for that. I put some up for wife's cat and he uses it all the time

Not sure. My cat doesn't sxratch furniture but the fabric is not s stiff tight weave so it might not be

Cat will be able to go under it and possibly scratch it to pieces. This is more for insect protection

I really don't think anything will keep cats from scratching on whatever is in the house, but Oliver seems to be using this scratching post more often and my chair and door facings a lot less. He uses this post a lot more than the cat tree covered in carpet. Since he totally destroyed the small patch of sisel on that tree I figured he like the texture so I purchased this post. Don't know about your cats, but he is choosing this post over other things in the house now. Good luck on whaterver you decide to do about your cats' scratching.

Really don't know. Doesn't sound like a good idea. A good mouser cat should do the job.

This has worked great for ventilation in the back windows of my Pathfinder but, as te picture shows, the window is still about half way up and I imagine the scratching could still e a problem. Good luck!

My cat does not scratch furniture but Feliway advertizes that if you spray where the cat scratches, it will stop scratching there because the place is now "marked" That did work where my cat was starting to scratch on the carpet.

Hmmm... possibly, especially if the cat likes to stretch upwards to scratch. My experience has been that it's very hard to tell what a cat will do on any given day! Best wishes!

It's not carpet so it's not as sturdy but I only use this condo for my kittens under 3 mo so their little claws don't really pull up the fabric. They actually prefer to scratch the rope and not the fabric. If my older cats used this post and scratched the fabric then I doubt it would hold up long. It works great as a kitten post. We've had ours over 6 mo with constant kitten use (we're fosters) and despite the screws coming loose a few times, and the dangly toys only lasting a day...we're happy with it considering the price :)

Yes, if your cat is small to average sized. I have a small adult cat who loves it, and a very large adult cat who uses the scratch posts, but isn't a fan of climbing. He might fit, but he's never tried to lay down up there.

It does seem like it would hold up for a while, as the wood is finished and maybe lacquered even, but if the scratching material is soaked through it might not hold up as well and possibly parts of the wood internally would eventually get water damaged as well as they are probably not finished. Maybe try a cheaper option like a door handle hanging version, put cat nip on it or instead of hanging it (my cats didn't like when it moved) tape it or somehow secure it lower by where they claw. Also maybe cheap corrugated cardboard might work to block damage, although if it's an uncovered area that won't hold up much in rain either...

No. I wouldn't put the scratching post outside. If you had a person handy with tools perhaps a post could be made by putting a 40" log on a large base for the cats to stretch and scratch on.

It will keep them from peeing on certain spots on carpeting. I don't know about just scratching.

Yeah my cat scratched all over it and its fine. Very solid like a tablet. Its would be almost impossible to scratch it

Yes. I really like mine and use it on laminate wood floor that is not as durable as bamboo. No problem with scratching.

I think it would...I use it to cover the top of the couch to keep my dog from jumping off of it. It is a bit slick on the bottom so it can slide around some, but it's really easy to position. I suppose if I was really worried about movement of the Scat Mat I would either put something on it to keep it from sliding around (tape? Velcro?) because I'm not sure how much it would move around if on an outside surface/in the wind.

I think it would work fine as I used it on a tablecloth that I groom my cat on in my basement and it took the hair off of it. Hope this helps.
