New Age Pet's Purr & Play range was created to engage cats and protect furniture with play structure scratchers that provide places to rest and satisfy instincts.
The Kitty Lounge Scratcher, available in two sizes, sports a sleek design with a built-in play channel in the backrest that features two interactive balls for swatting. Similarly, the Trolley Scratcher has two interactive ball channels, each with a rolling ball, plus a jute-wrapped handle as an additional surface for cats to claw. The Purr & Play lineup also has other fun scratcher shapes, like a bunk bed and a basketball hoop with a bowl for napping.
As to be expected, the corrugated cardboard scratcher pads will wear with use, and the lineup includes replacement pads available for purchase.
