I got it all set up and the cats weren't using it.  It was kind of upsetting me.  When I  got up this morning and through my blurry eyes I could see the white kitty at the top and looking out the window.  My other cat loves the bottom scratching post.  They aren't lounging on it as much as I'd like.  It might have to do with the material used.  It doesn't feel like carpet but is furry.  I'm going to give them a little more time to warm up to it.  I do like that it's narrow an doesn't take up much space.
