Frequently Asked Questions

  • How sturdy is the Zip?

    Zip's scratching post has an extra wide base that makes it extremely sturdy. We have received customer videos where their cats have been playing wildly and flinging their entire weight against it, but the Zip scratching post didn't budge. Additionally, there is a screw that can be tightened on the post itself to ensure maximum sturdiness.

  • How do I make sure my cat will use the post?

    Cats may need time to adjust to new products in the home, especially if they are unfamiliar. Here are a few tips that may help:

    1. Place the post in a visible area where your cat already likes to scratch.
    2. Try using catnip or treats to encourage your cat to engage with the post.
    3. Engage in play with your cat around the post to get them used to it.
    4. Consider placing the post near their bed or a window where they like to spend time.
    5. Avoid putting your cat directly on the post - let them explore and use it independently.
    6. Reward your cat with treats or praise when they show interest in the post.
    7. Put the post next to something they already like using to make it more appealing.
    8. Be patient! It can take weeks for a cat to show interest in a new post.
  • Do I need to anchor Zip to make sure that it’s stable?

    No, thanks to its wide base, we have very carefully weighted Zip to ensure that it balances and stays level during use and is safe for your cat to enjoy safely. No power tools needed!

  • Is the carpet color on each version of Zip the same?

    Yes, we’ve chosen this specific woven sisal carpet for its longevity, neutral colour pairing with both the ash and walnut finishes, and it was the favourite of all of our cat testers!

  • Can I buy replacement parts?

    Sure thing! Contact us at purr@tuftandpaw.com and we can take care of it.

    Fuji Approved

    My girl Fuji is obsessed. We have a small space, & this gives her something to climb on. It’s sturdy & the base is heavy so there’s no issue with tipping over (she’s 9-10lbs for reference). She acclimated to it so fast, & uses it all the time. Bonus: it’s kinda funny seeing her climb because she looks like King Kong climbing the Empire State Building.

    Instantly successful

    I love it, the kitties love it especially when I rub catnip on it. It’s sturdy, nice looking and tall enough for climbing or stretching.
