Cat scratcher Trixie 44713 — standing scratcher, width 700 mm, depth 480 mm

The TRIXIE 44713 cat scratcher is a large, multi-level cat furniture piece designed for big cats and active scratchers. With a sturdy metal-framed hammock, a thick heavy base plate and a cave fully lined with soft plush, it combines resting, scratching and climbing areas in one compact unit. The product measures approximately 70 cm in width and 48 cm in depth, offering stable support for heavier pets while keeping key surfaces covered in durable sisal and plush materials.

Advantages

The design uses 6 mm sisal for dedicated scratching posts and high-quality polyester plush (600 g/m²) on resting areas, which provides good durability and comfort. The reversible quilted cushion and the cuddly bag are hand-washable, and the hammock includes a sturdy metal frame for reliable support. A thick, heavy base plate enhances overall stability, and the cave fully fitted with plush makes a cozy hideaway for cats.

Suitable for

• Large and heavy domestic cats
• Active scratchers who need durable sisal surfaces
• Cats that like elevated resting places and hammocks
• Households seeking a combined scratching, climbing and sleeping solution

When it may not be suitable

This cat scratcher is large and relatively heavy, so it may not be suitable for very small living spaces or for owners who need a lightweight, easily movable unit. It is intended primarily for cats that appreciate enclosed hideaways and elevated hammocks; cats that prefer open, flat beds might not use all features.

Key specifications

• Overall width: approx. 70 cm
• Overall depth: approx. 48 cm
• Sisal rope diameter: 6 mm
• Plush material: polyester, 600 g/m²
• Includes quilted reversible cushion and cuddly bag (hand-washable)
• Hammock with metal frame
• Thick, heavy base plate for stability
• Colour: cappuccino

How to use

Assemble the unit on a flat, stable floor following the manufacturer's assembly instructions. Place the scratcher in a location where your cat already spends time or near windows and resting areas to encourage use. Introduce the reversible cushion and cuddly bag inside the cave and on resting platforms; these items can be removed and hand-washed as needed. Encourage scratching on sisal posts rather than furniture by rubbing catnip or toys on the sisal areas.

What to consider before purchase

• Check available floor space and doorway clearances for a unit approximately 70 x 48 cm in footprint.
• Consider the weight and stability needs of your cat(s); the heavy base plate suits larger cats.
• Plan for occasional hand-washing of the cushion and cuddly bag.
• Ensure the cappuccino colour fits your interior.

Usage recommendations

Place the scratcher on a non-slip surface near a window or a favourite resting spot. Regularly check sisal areas for wear and replace parts if necessary to maintain safety and function.
