SmartCat Ultimate Post Perch with Pad

This is the 2nd perch I have bought from pet planet for my cat to use with the tall scratch post that I purchased from a third party to use in another room. My cat absolutely loves it, being up high on her perch staring outside, also likes to go asleep on it too. The price has been reduced as well which is a bonus

Purchased the Smart scratch post first. It is the best one ever !! The Smart cat perch, that slides easily on the top,finishes it off. My cat went straight on it & had a sleep zzz

Super easy to install ! Our kitten like resting on top after an active play Worth it even red is not really our color

Bought this at the same time as the post, our cat has long tufts of fur between her toes meaning she tends to slip on smooth surfaces, she likes to climb and sit in high places so this was an essential safety buy. It slides easily onto the post but also slides off just as easily, a piece of card from the post packaging between post and perch gave it a firm fit. The pad is reversible, but again, it slides about. I fixed this with a piece of non slip mesh matting between pad and mdf surface. The velcro dots to secure the straps have stayed in place, probably as the pad now does not slip and pull on them but could be remedied with better velcro if need be. Aesthetically, the plastic runners are a bit unsightly as they are at eye level, but that again is a minor detail. The original post could have been designed with an included perch with permanent fixings, most cats like to climb so for safety's sake they need a safe place to perch when they reach the top.

The seat Slides on easily, and it's nicely made. The only problem is my cat won't jump onto the seat. it's both higher and smaller than his previous perch. And it puts him the same height as the kitchen work surfaces which he knows he shouldn't go onto. However he loves the scratching post and used that immediately.
