Evan Ryan of WISKI has created The Cone, a modern cat bed that doubles as a scratching post.

 

Evan Ryan, an industrial designer and founder of WISKI, a brand dedicated to making beautiful cat products, has created The Cone. Tired of the lack of options in the cat isle, and looking at numerous out of date designs, Evan decided to build a scratch post that would match his own home decor. Launched on Kickstarter, The Cone is a modern scratch post and comfortable sleeping nook for cats.

From initial napkin sketches to CAD models, Evan ended up choosing the cone shape and thus created The Cone, a modern scratch post and comfortable sleeping nook for cats.

It’s easy to carry and has a natural sisal wrap, making it extremely durable. Equipped with a zipper, it’s easy to remove the wrap and replace it with a new one, after roughly five years.
