How to use

Place the Trixie freestanding scratching board on a flat, stable surface in an area where your cat likes to scratch, such as near sofas, cat beds, or windows. Ensure the board sits firmly on the floor so it does not tip during use. Introduce your cat to the scratching board by gently guiding its paws over the surface or using cat-safe attractants such as catnip or toys to encourage initial interaction. Regularly inspect the surface for wear and replace the board when the texture is significantly worn to maintain effective scratching and claw care.

Usage recommendations

Position the scratching board close to existing scratching spots to help your cat adopt the new surface more quickly. Clean the surrounding area and rotate the board occasionally to distribute wear evenly. Do not use harsh chemicals on the scratching surface; wipe the wooden base with a damp cloth if necessary.
