OurPets Cat Scratchers Why Cats Scratch Cats’ claws continue to grow throughout their lives. Periodically, the base of each nail becomes encased in a scaly outer layer, or sheath. Scratching is the cat’s natural way of removing the sheath so the healthy nail can grow through. The Problem In nature, wild cats have the option of scratching trees or logs. In the house, domestic cats turn to furniture as a substitute. Cats in the home need a natural outlet for scratching that doesn’t damage household items. Why Use a OurPets Scratcher OurPets Scratchers provide cats with a scratching surface they can’t resist and are reversible for double the scratching life. Cats appreciate the nooks and crannies in the corrugated cardboard that help them groom their claws as they scratch, providing the natural outlet cats need while saving furniture and other household items. All OurPets Scratchers include genuine, North-American-grown OurPets catnip to help encourage scratcher use. Use with Catnip Sprinkling a generous amount of genuine OurPets catnip onto the scratcher will encourage frequent scratching and redirect the behavior from furniture to the scratcher. How to Use a Scratcher Place OurPets Scratchers near furniture or areas where cat has been scratching. When your cat is scratching in an unwanted place, redirect the behavior by immediately placing the cat’s front paws on the scratcher.
