there are a number of places on-line with instructions for making your
own; phaewyrn has a place she bought hers from that she swears by, but
they are NOT inexpensive.

i have a great recommendation for a place that sells on ebay, called
armarkat (they have two or three authorized dealers as well.) they
have multiple listings all the time, and essentially you pay almost
nothing for the furniture, but pay for shipping instead--the closer
you are to the west coast, the less you pay. a friend got a tree for
$.99, with $15 shipping.... on their website directly, you pay
discount prices, with no shipping--but if you watch ebay, you can do
much better. the recommendation i have is from a high-volume bengal
rescue--and anyone who knows bengals know that they are a HIGH-ENERGY
breed.... anything that can stand up to multiple bengals has to be
pretty solid.... this rescue has three of the armarkat trees.....
there's a  72" one i have my eye on for one of these days..... the
shipping alone will run me $80, but i've seen the tree go on ebay for
as little as $10, and compared to other trees of its size and layout,
that's about 1/3 of what it'd be anywhere else.

Hi guys,

I am looking for some inexpensive scratching posts.  My guys destroy my
scratching posts within a month at most, and they are like $30 at PetSmart.

Thanks,

Kelley
