Our cat is already 12 years and can not jump as well, therefore he no longer used his old scratching post. With this model Art steps he can easily come back to the window sill and Keeping an eye out. The model looks good, good workmanship, fast delivery and was well packaged. Apart from that the seat is too small for our top chunk of cat, everything else is ok. Our cat is then up to the window sill. Greetings from cat lover Birgit
