Give Those Claws a Better Target Than Your Sofa
Scratching is not bad behavior. It is how cats stretch, shed old claw sheaths and leave their scent, and they will do it somewhere every day. The MATERA PET Tropical Palm Scratching Post gives them a sisal trunk that feels right under the claws, a sisal ball to bat between scratches and a soft plush base to flop on afterwards, all wrapped in a green palm look that sits nicely next to real houseplants.
At a Glance
- The MATERA PET Tropical Palm Scratching Post is a single sisal-wrapped trunk topped with faux canna leaves, standing on a round plush base.
- The sisal trunk is about 19.7 inches tall and the base measures about 15.7 inches across.
- A sisal ball hangs from the trunk on a cord for batting and pawing.
- It is made for indoor kittens and small to medium cats.
- The package weighs about 4.1 lb and the post assembles by hand at home.
- The box contains one scratching post: trunk, leaf crown, hanging ball and plush base.
- Every order ships with tracking, and returns are free for 30 days.
Key Features
- Sisal where it counts - tightly wound natural sisal rope gives claws the rough, shreddable grip cats look for, so the post wins over smooth upholstery.
- A toy built in - the hanging sisal ball swings at paw height, turning a scratch session into play.
- A soft spot at the base - the round plush base doubles as a lounging pad, so the post becomes a place to rest as well as scratch.
- Looks like decor, not pet gear - faux canna leaves and a green base give it a houseplant look that blends into a living room.
- Small footprint - the base is about 15.7 inches across, so it fits beside a sofa arm, a door frame or a window.
- Easy to place where the scratching happens - at about 4.1 lb packed, it is light enough to move to whichever spot your cat targets.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the single post or the three-trunk palm tree?
This listing is the single-post version: one sisal trunk with a crown of faux canna leaves, a hanging sisal ball and a round plush base. The larger three-trunk palm trees are not included.
How tall is the scratching post?
The sisal trunk is about 19.7 inches tall and the base is about 15.7 inches across, with the leaf crown sitting on top of the trunk. That suits kittens and small to medium cats; a very large cat that likes a full vertical stretch may prefer a taller post as well.
Will my cat actually use it instead of the couch?
Most cats scratch where they already spend time. Place the post right next to the spot they scratch now, rub a little catnip on the sisal, and praise or reward every scratch on the post. Once the habit moves, you can shift the post a little at a time.
Can my cat chew the leaves?
The leaves are decorative. Most cats ignore them, but if your cat chews plastic or fabric, check the leaves regularly and move the post out of reach if they start to show bite marks.
How do I keep it clean?
Vacuum the plush base and the sisal with a brush attachment once a week to lift hair and claw sheaths. Spot-clean the base with a damp cloth and mild soap, then let it air dry.
How long does delivery take, and can I return it?
Every order ships with tracking and is usually delivered in 4–10 business days. Returns are free within 30 days.
In the box: 1 tropical palm scratching post (sisal trunk, faux canna leaf crown, hanging sisal ball, round plush base). Tip: set it right beside the spot your cat already scratches, and dust the sisal with catnip for the first few days.
