Miss Meow's garden theme scratching post arrived. Except it is actually a children's foam couch โ˜น๏ธ

Now I have to take it back to the post office for a refund.

Edit: scrap that, I'm keeping the couch. I just had a look at what it is, and it is very similar to the foam mattress I was thinking of getting for the back of the van. And it's worth over twice as much as the cat tree. So I've just ordered another cat tree and won't return the couch.

More Edit: I just unrolled it. This thing is massive! It's basically two single mattresses on top of each other, which fold in the middle. Plus two wedge shaped cushions. It could easily be used for two single beds or one double bed.

That's incredibly lucky. I love it when you accidentally get free things in the mail like that. I bought a digital radio for my mum once and got a free keyboard out of it because Dick Smith put the same tracking number on it, absolutely no way for them to trace it

until you described the size I was gonna say keep it. We got one of those toddler couches from clarke rubber and it's perfectly cat sized.
