Any idea where I can find this scratching pad?

I found this scratching thing at Big Lots about a year ago. Monet absolutely LOVES it, and so does Cassie, as you can see in the pic. Big Lots no longer sells these, I can't seem to find it anywhere.. and re-carpetting is out because the material inside is thick cardboard, not wood. It's getting pretty shredded up and the nails are starting to come through.

 

I would love to find another one of these for my cats. One side has the opening that Cassie is hiding in, and it has a small dangling toy that you can almost see sticking out.. the other side is closed off, save for a small hole where Monet is trying to get at Cassie.

 

Any ideas? If anyone happens to find one in store, I'll be happy to pay you back with shipping for it too!

Petco and Walmart does not have this particular kind here. They do have the smaller, flatter 'S' shaped scratcher, but not like this

That's a neat looking scratching pad! I haven't seen anything like it around my area, but I'll keep my eye out for one!!

Problem with BigLots-- It is a closeout store. In other words, you can buy cool things there- but it is mostly because the company is discontinuing the item,. When corporations discontinue an item, it ends up at stores like Big Lots- Big Lots will buy a "Mystery Lot" of things, valued at probably $40 - 50 K,, and pay maybe 10 or 20 for it, and resale it. I used to work at Target, and the "one spot" that got "clearenced" after each season (that is the $1 and $2.50 ) section at the front of the store, it would get shipping to a company that sold "LOTS" of stuff  to BIG LOTS and other stores. So it likely isn't being made anymore!!

I saw the exact same shape at petsmart, but different material.  It was sort of a kitchen mat material with a patch of woven sisal.
