Not every cat wants to rear up against a vertical post. This angled take on the classic scratching pole gives older cats, slower risers, and anyone who just prefers a slope a surface they can lean into and drag their claws down. The sisal runs the length of the pole, so a good stretch and a satisfying dig come in the same motion.It runs on the same modular pole system as the rest of the wall range, which means you pick the length that fits your cat and add to it later. The brackets are rated to hold a solid amount of weight per pole, and installation lands on a single stud with drywall anchors backing up the rest. Once it is up, it links straight into hammocks and shelves as your setup grows.
