TRIXIE 48035 cat scratcher Cat scratching board

The TRIXIE 48035 cat scratcher Cat scratching board by Mruu&Pruu is a freestanding scratching surface designed for domestic cats. Made primarily of layered cardboard and infused with catnip, the board offers a textured area for regular scratching behaviour. Its compact dimensions—630 mm wide, 100 mm deep and 350 mm high—allow placement along walls, in corners or near resting areas without occupying much floor space. The brown finish integrates discreetly into most home interiors.

Advantages

The cardboard construction provides a satisfying resistance and a replaceable surface for claw maintenance while remaining lightweight and easy to move. Infused catnip helps attract cats to the designated scratching area and encourages consistent use. The freestanding format requires no drilling or permanent fixtures, making it suitable for rented homes or flexible placement. The size balances a broad scratching area with a compact footprint for smaller rooms.

Suitable for

• Indoor cats that need a dedicated scratching surface
• Owners seeking a portable, non-permanent scratching solution
• Multi-cat households where an additional scratching point is beneficial
• Homes where space is limited and a compact scratcher is required

How to use

Place the TRIXIE 48035 cat scratching board on a stable, flat surface where your cat already spends time, such as near a window, bed or litter area. If the cat does not immediately use the board, rub a small amount of additional catnip or gently drag a toy across the surface to demonstrate the texture. Monitor initial use to ensure the board remains stable and reposition it if the cat prefers a different orientation. Replace the scratcher when the cardboard surface becomes excessively worn.

Usage recommendations

For best results, position one or more scratchers in high-traffic or resting zones to reduce furniture scratching. Regularly check the cardboard surface and rotate or replace the board when edges fray to maintain an effective scratching texture. Keep spare boards available if you have multiple cats or high scratching activity.
