Cat Scratching posts

She looks so forlorn in the shelter’s cage, so you decide to take her home. You couldn’t be happier!

Apart from being litter trained, she is sweet and affectionate! You cannot help the feeling of wanting to take her back at the week’s end!

The front corner of your once beautiful chintz love seat has been reduced to shreds, all thanks to your precious kitty.

Wait! Taking her back is not the answer! There is a solution. What you need to buy, right away, is a good cat scratch post. Searching for and finding a strong and stable to scratch comes naturally to a cat when she is placed in a new surrounding. Your loveseat is the best available option!

Cats have a territorial instinct that prompts them to place their mark and establish their territory.

Since their paws have scent glands that leave a distinctive scent, cats scratch surfaces in your home to let other cats know that they’re wandering into marked territory.

Even if you don’t have any other cats, your kitty doesn’t know when one might show up! It also feels good, so cats scratch for that good feeling!

By purchasing a cat scratching post, you solve two problems:

Number one:
Your kitty doesn’t scratch your furniture anymore, and

Number two:
She keeps herself in shape, and at the same time satisfies the urge to scratch. By stretching, pulling and working the muscles of her front quarters, she’ll get the workout that she needs each time she attacks the scratching post!

Purchase a cat scratch post with a rough surface, like sisal material or something similar and she would actually prefer that scratch post to your love seat. The soft pretty looking posts, just forget about them! They will not gain her interest al all.

Cats have a need to shred and sisal material (not sisal rope) is perfect for them. Cats cannot resist the urge to shred things! Your kitty needs to get a healthy stretch while she scratches, so make sure that the cat scratch post is at least 28″ high.

It is imperative that the post is sturdy and won’t move during a heavy duty scratching session! A frightened kitty won’t return to a post that toppled on her!

Do not hesitate another minute, now that you know the reason why kitty scratches! You need your love seat, and you need your kitty, so the both of you need a cat scratch post!
