Paradise for cats!
For true cat lovers, it can never be good enough for their Rebels. This is why our design team has created scratching post Siberian 200. This is the new successor to the well-known Ragdoll 200. More modern and even more stable! But the word ‘scratching post’ is far from covering it. With two spacious lounge boxes with chic steps, quilted extra-large hammocks and an extra-wide lounge basket at the top, we prefer to call this topper a paradise for cats! Because that’s what it is. A treat for any cat to scratch, relax in and keep an eye on the whole household.
colours – off white plush and grey sisal
dimensions – length 118 cm, width 45 cm and height 200 cm
two sturdy Luxury sleeper XL hammocks measuring 45x45cm
spacious lounge basket measuring 118x41cm
two luxury cat houses measuring 78 x 40 x 30cm

I’m absolutely delighted with this scratching post! Top quality, and finally a scratching post that’s really suitable for large cats! The customer service is brilliant too. Delivery was super-fast as well. I’ll only be buying scratching posts from Petrebels from now on!

My cats and I love this magnificent tree; personally, I wish the fabric of the hammocks were removable so I could machine-wash them.
That’s why I’ve deducted one star.

This scratching post is in a league of its own compared to the ones usually on offer from other brands.
This scratching post is simply worth every penny.
Delivery was very quick at just two days, assembly was a breeze, and the end result is impressive.
After some initial puzzled looks from all three cats as to what on earth I’d put in their home, the tree was fortunately accepted very quickly by all three. Even when my Maine Coon and my European Shorthair are battling it out on the tree, nothing wobbles.
The icing on the cake for the cat owner: the tree also makes a lovely room divider.
My verdict: this probably won’t be the last tree of its kind for the ‘little ones’.

First of all, many thanks for the quick delivery and the great communication. Putting it together was a bit tricky as our cat Magda had to watch every single step, so we couldn’t really get on with it🙈. But now it’s up and our furry friends are giving it the thumbs-up😂. We can’t recommend this scratching post highly enough!!!

A really lovely scratching post. The posts are incredibly thick and very sturdy. You really do need to use the wall fixings, otherwise it’s quite wobbly. Quick to put together. I managed it on my own in just 50 minutes. Six European Shorthairs are over the moon again. I bought another Petrebels post six years ago and that one is still going strong too. They cost a bit, but they last a very long time. The quality is simply top-notch!

Fast delivery. A high-quality cat tree. My two cats took to it straight away. It’s the largest and most beautiful cat tree I’ve ever bought, and it complements the wall-mounted cat walk I already have perfectly. Thanks to the ladder, the tree is perfectly stable without needing to be fixed to the wall. I have absolutely no regrets about this purchase.

We’ve been using it for a year and are very happy with the quality. TOP
One of the beds was damaged on delivery but was replaced without any issues; we were allowed to keep the damaged one and it’s now on the floor.
It’s a shame you can’t arrange the small platforms and the beds individually, because then the top sleeping area ends up at an angle.
For example, we wanted to swap the right-hand trough for a platform because they usually sleep on the left-hand side, and then one cat has to climb over the other.
I think that’s a real shame, so I’m deducting one point. Perhaps when designing new trees, you could take into account the possibility of arranging some elements individually.
Best wishes, Jasmin

We chose a scratching post from you because it looked sooo sturdy, and it has far exceeded our expectations – great quality, superbly crafted, easy to assemble with very clear instructions, and very stable. Our Coonis took to it straight away. If we ever need another one, it’ll definitely be from you. Many thanks also for the speedy delivery. Best wishes from beautiful Saxony.

A beautiful, imposing block of flats that fills the view.
The toddler and the teenager had already packed their bags before the handover date and took over every floor during the opening ceremony.
Nowadays, they only pop round for meals and to do their laundry.
One thing the property owner didn’t consider when buying this building:
I’m too short to reach the roof terrace, so that’s where they sit when they know they’re being annoying neighbours.

I bought the Siberian 200 from Petrebels today. What a beautiful piece of furniture. Our cats were already in it before it was fully assembled. We bought it in the shop because we wanted to see it in person first. Also because we were unsure which colour to choose. We received fantastic service and were welcomed with coffee and tea. I have no regrets about the colour we eventually chose. It looks absolutely lovely. To the team at Petrebels, on behalf of us and our four cats, thank you for the service.

I hesitated for a long time because of the price, but I shouldn’t have. It’s really high quality and easy to put together because everything is numbered. It’s a real eye-catcher in our living room; the cats were already scratching at it whilst we were assembling it – they’re absolutely delighted with their new super-soft little hotel. And the delivery was super-fast too – it arrived just one day later. We even thought the boxes were absolutely brilliant – thank you, Petrebels, for making Snowy and Milou, and us too, so happy!

The best cat tree we’ve ever had.
The customer service is excellent; I’d ordered the wrong one at first. I sent an email, received a reply straight away, and the order was cancelled. This meant we could order our dream cat tree, which arrived within two working days of ordering. It was very easy to put together and was up and ready in just 30 minutes. The cats love it and won’t come down from the scratching post at all. The quality is top-notch. The price is, of course, at the higher end, but justified by the quality. We would buy it again in a heartbeat.

A substantial purchase, but a very useful one.
As my Tayiko is a 7kg Norwegian Forest Cat, it’s not easy to find a cat tree that can withstand his weight and doesn’t bend under it.
With this one, no problem at all! He can jump, hang, climb… nothing budges!
My Nalah, who weighs just 4kg but is very energetic, used to knock over the previous cat trees we had. With this one, no problem at all!
I’m absolutely delighted with this purchase, even though it was a bit of a blow to the wallet!

Siberia 200 – simply WOW… We have two British Shorthair cats
It looks great in the photos, but when it’s actually in our living room, it looks absolutely stunning! The assembly instructions were clear and it went very quickly. Three large boxes, but everything was perfectly packed. Very sturdy – nothing wobbles. We’ve still fixed it to the wall, so nothing can really go wrong now. We bought the tree on offer, but it’s well worth the money!
Now we’ll just have to wait and see how the two of them take to the tree 😉 … Pictures to follow!
Regarding delivery: If a tree is in stock, they really do dispatch it before 3 pm. Our issue was this: ordered on Thursday 18 July 2024, arrived at the DPD delivery depot on Saturday morning 20 July 2024 at 2 am. We waited, but no cat tree on a Saturday! When we asked DPD, they said priority parcels take precedence over medical/food items etc., followed by standard DPD parcels, but apparently the van was already fully loaded.
Anyone writing here saying they haven’t received a tracking number should check their email inbox or the spam folder!!! Very quick from order to delivery and great service.
Would I recommend buying it? YES, absolutely!

tamaradammers –

In a word: WOW! We received the scratching post today and put it together straight away. Our cats were already climbing on it whilst we were assembling it. The 20cm-thick posts are impressive, as is the size of the scratching post. The base is nice and shallow, which is the main reason we chose this scratching post. Bear in mind that the top shelf does protrude slightly, so the top is actually deeper than 45 cm. The steps also make it slightly deeper, but those few centimetres are negligible. We’ve had plenty of scratching posts over the years, including a cat wall, but none as lovely as this one. The baskets are big enough for our chubby tomcat; they can even fit in there together (which is what they prefer). They’ve all already scratched the bottom post; they seem to like the 20 cm thickness. I’d like to leave another review once we’ve had the post for a bit longer. We’ve had several posts that looked great at first but were already broken after a few months. A couple of years ago, we bought an 80cm scratching barrel from Petrebels, and it still looks as good as new (it gets used more than intensively), so we do have some experience with a Petrebels product. We chose the ‘pepper’ colour, which is more of an anthracite with a lovely light sheen running through it. The scratching post will go in our new house, but we’re keeping it in our old house for a while so that their scents are all nicely on it by the time we move. By then, we’ll send you some lovely photos. For those of you who are still undecided, this post is absolutely brilliant! We have four cats: three Kurilian Bobtails and one half-Maine Coon. All big, heavy cats. But with this post, there’s still room for four more cats…..:-)….
Chris W. –

Note: The most important thing: Unfortunately, the ladder isn’t factored into the stated dimensions, so you need to allow a bit more space when setting it up! I’d say about 10–15 cm, just a rough guess…
It didn’t fit in our home because of the ladder. However, we simply screwed it onto the side – having drilled holes for the ladder beforehand. (Be careful if you plan to do the same. The chipboard can break through when drilling!)
But now to the actual review:
First of all, I must praise the delivery service and the speed of delivery. Ordered the night before last and it was already here two days later. Otherwise, I got on very well with the assembly too. The scratching post is used by two domestic cats (normal size) and they don’t miss their old scratching post one bit! (The old one was roughly the same size, just much cheaper) and otherwise I can only say that the post is stable enough for the two cats. Unfortunately, I can’t say anything about Maine Coons, so when I shake it, it does wobble a bit, but if necessary, you can also fix it to the wall. The posts are certainly very thick, and I do think the tree itself can withstand quite a lot. In terms of quality, I can personally say that it’s definitely better quality than our old scratching post. But only time will tell if it lasts longer than the other one. The old scratching post didn’t even last a year before the first fabrics tore and the ropes came loose. But as I said, so far I can only say: top product!

A very well-made scratching post. Well-packed in three separate boxes, it was delivered neatly to the door of a block of flats. Once I’d opened the boxes, I found a very clear instruction manual inside. Assembling it was a breeze (took about 30 minutes).
The scratching post looks lovely and feels like a high-quality product. After about 45 minutes, the cats were already walking around the post, exploring it. After a while, two of them were lying quietly in their ‘own’ basket. The third is still looking at it a bit warily, thinking ‘I’d rather lie on a rug on the floor’. But given the history of the three, they’ll all end up in it.
I also thought PetRebels’ service was very well organised. The post itself wasn’t in stock but became available again later on 20 February. A few days before that, I received a polite email explaining that the post would be arriving shortly.
And today was the day!
All very well organised

We went for the Siberian 200 and haven’t regretted it for a second. Our two British Shorthairs love the new cat wall unit ;-), it really looks the part. The delivery was brilliant – ordered on Sunday and it arrived on Tuesday. Five stars is actually an insult to Petrebels, but unfortunately that’s the highest rating available. The scratching posts are in a league of their own and nothing I’ve seen so far comes anywhere near them….Mega, keep up the good work, thank you very much

Delivery was super-fast. With three cats, we opted for the new SIBERIAN 200 in off-white. It was the best decision ever. Top quality – you can tell that every detail has been crafted with love and expertise. A fantastic, huuuuge tree with 25cm-thick scratching posts, great lounges and cosy hammocks that our three cats were already exploring whilst we were putting it together. Everyone finds their favourite spot. Assembly is straightforward, every screw fits perfectly and it’s just fun to put together. And it’s decorative too. Better to make a good investment once, enjoy it for many years and have happy cats.
Thank you so much ❤️
Highly recommended!!

3 packs = 1 tree (Siberian 200)
Easy to assemble, top quality
The trees come fully assembled; you just had to screw the posts and panels together…
The sisal holds up very well… The fabric doesn't shed either…
I regret buying those cheap scratching posts

Sturdy enough for my four American Shorthairs – it still looks brand new after a few months! As soon as I started unpacking the large boxes, my cats came over to check whether I knew what I was doing. Luckily, clear assembly instructions were included, so I had the scratching post set up within 45 minutes. The extra-wide box is ideal for stretching out in, but the hammock is actually their favourite spot
