If you don’t want your fluffy carpet or upholstered furniture to be damaged by Murka’s or Barsik’s sharp claws, you should think about purchasing a scratching post.

Fortunately, modern stores offer a wide range of such “accessories”.

First of all, the products differ in their sizes.

If the room allows, you can purchase a tall and complex scratching post, equipped with several shelves at different heights, hammocks, tunnels and houses.

If space is limited, take a look at wall-mounted or corner scratching posts.

To make scratching posts, sisal fiber is mostly used, which is obtained from a special type of agave.

This material is tough and durable, making it ideal for adult cats.

In the same case, if the scratching post is intended for a kitten, it is worth taking a closer look at plush things to dull and exfoliate delicate claws.
