Cat-Friendly Rope Stools

Vonk by Krab is a Durable Seating Solution That Cats Can Scratch

Whether a furniture piece is feline-friendly or not, cats will often use the design as a scratching post of their own—so Krab created a rope stool for the home called Vonk that can be shared by cats and people alike. While humans will appreciate that the space-saving, durable stool helps to add aesthetically pleasing seating and storage space to the home, cats will enjoy that the design can be used just like a classic scratching post or even just something to climb on.

The made-to-order design by Krab is wrapped with thick sisal rope and boasts a lid that's made with birch plywood. Unlike many cat accessories, this one promises to be a useful addition to interior spaces that serves both people and pets well.
