We have two larger cats that love to climb and scratch.  Our couch was slowly being destroyed.  Our cats both LOVE their new climber!  They were climbing on it as we were building it.  They will climb to the very top perch and each have claimed their personal spots on it.  It is a FANTASTIC product at an amazing price.  I would definitely buy another one and would highly recommend it.  We are absolutely THRILLED with our purchase!
