Mr Fidget's christmas present arrived!
Jan. 4th, 2008 06:40 pmlast year we bought him a scratching post/tower/thing. This year, we went one better, and bought him a bigger scratching tower.
This is last years:
this is the new one:

for comparison:

The reason behind getting a bigger one is simply that Fidget loved having the elevated viewing platform at the height it was when the small one was standing on top of the mini fridge, as it gave him a good view out of the window, but it meant he couldnt reach the scratching poles.
Now, he is high enough to sit at our head height, see out of the window properly, and still reach the scratchy bits from the floor:

although i did have to coax him onto it with catnip drops :-)
