About Our Products

Craftsmanship Rooted in Nature

We source our oak from the heart of the Devon countryside, supporting local farmers and landowners by utilising wood naturally felled by storms or old age.

Once gathered, our oak is seasoned for a minimum of two years to ensure ultimate strength, longevity, and natural beauty. This commitment to sustainability ensures you're not just pampering your cat, but also respecting the environment.

Oak naturally moves and subtly shifts in form, which doesn't affect your cat tree's structure or strength. These features are part of the wood's unique story, reflecting its journey from forest to your home. Embrace the cracks, shakes, and splits—they add character and warmth, telling a tale of nature's beauty.

Experience The Luxury Of Our Cat Beds

Nestled atop our oak platforms are sumptuous sheepskin beds sourced locally in Devon. These naturally magical wonders are cool in summer, warm in winter, and incredibly soft for cats.

The breathable fibres act like a natural thermostat, ensuring your feline friend's ultimate comfort.

Choose from three natural sheepskin colours: Ivory, Rare Breed, or Brown, each uniquely beautiful and a natural testament to the sheep's individuality. No two sheepskins are the same; colour and patterns will vary due to them being a natural product. If you're after a particular shade, we're happy to send photos of current stock.

​Our luxury cat beds are designed to provide the ultimate comfort for your feline friend crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these beds offer a cozy and inviting space for your cat to relax and rejuvenate.

​Unveiling the Natural Beauty Of Oak

At Sophisticated Scratch, we celebrate the exquisite grain patterns of our sustainably sourced English oak. To enhance this natural elegance, we offer two distinct finishes:

  • High-Gloss Glam: Embrace a stunning, reflective surface with our layered oil and varnish finish. This dazzling choice complements any décor, adding a touch of modern luxury.

  • Subdued Sophistication: For a warm, matte appearance, opt for our natural oil finish. This timeless option allows the wood's natural beauty to shine through, creating an understated elegance.

Long-Lasting Appeal: Both finishes offer exceptional protection for your luxury cat tree. While the high-gloss finish requires minimal maintenance, the natural oil may require reapplication every year to maintain its deep, lustrous sheen. It's a simple process that ensures your cat tree continues to be a stunning focal point for years to come.

Safe for Your Whole Family: We prioritise the health of your loved ones, including your furry friend. That's why we use Osmo 3011 Polyx Oil, a safe and dry finish that's perfect for children's toys, pets, and humans.

Beyond Beauty: Our natural oil finish isn't just about aesthetics. It allows the oak to breathe, adapting to environmental changes—just like your cat! This ensures your cat tree not only looks stunning but also remains strong and durable for generations to come.
