How to use

Place the scratching post on a flat, stable surface close to areas where your cat already spends time or near furniture you want to protect. Encourage the cat to use the post by gently guiding its paws or placing a small amount of catnip on the scratching surface. Regular placement and positive reinforcement, such as petting or treats after use, help the animal adopt the post as a preferred scratching spot. Inspect periodically for wear and replace when the surface becomes significantly frayed.

Usage recommendations

For best results, provide multiple scratching surfaces in different orientations and locations in the home. Keep the scratching post clean and secure it on a stable surface to prevent tipping. Replace the post when it no longer provides adequate texture for scratching to maintain claw health and prevent damage to household furniture.
