The Cat Ladder

This scratching 'post' is made from a four-foot step ladder!

If you have a cat, you know he's going to want to use this. This is Disneyland for cats. The only difference, of course, is that you won't have to travel to California. That, and there's no roller coasters. If you feed the cat some cat nap, though, and put it on top of the cat ladder, what will be the difference.

It's all a matter of building the damn thing. Luckily, you don't have to start from scratch (no pun intended). Just purchase a ladder and cover it up with the appropriate rope.
This home-made scratching 'post' is made from a four foot step ladder. It is wrapped in about 600 feet of ¼ inch un-oiled manila rope. Un-oiled sisal rope can be used as well. If you're up for the challenge of making one yourself, be sure to get rope that is un-oiled; oiled rope is toxic to cats.

Give it a go. You got a cat, you got a ladder, you got some rope. When you're done, open up a can of beer and get ready for a good time. There's nothing like cheap entertainment, is there?
