Each mat in the set measures 80 cm in length and 50 cm in width (L x W).

What material is the scratching surface made of?

Can I use these mats on walls?

Yes, the mats come with adhesive hook and loop tapes that allow you to securely attach them to walls or other vertical surfaces.

How do I clean the scratcher mats?

You can easily clean the mats by vacuuming them or shaking them outdoors to remove loose hair and debris.

Is the backing non-slip?

Yes, each mat features a non-slip latex backing to enhance stability and prevent sliding on most surfaces.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The product comes with a 1-year guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Cat is not using the scratcher

Sprinkle catnip on the mat or gently rub your cat's paws on it to associate it with scratching. Ensure the mat is placed in an area your cat frequents.

Mat is slipping on the floor

Ensure the latex backing is clean and dry. For smoother floors, consider using the included adhesive hook and loop tapes for added security.

Adhesive tape not holding firmly

Clean the surface thoroughly before applying. Press firmly for at least 30 seconds. For very smooth surfaces, a stronger adhesive might be needed, or opt for floor placement.

Sisal fibers coming loose

This is normal with heavy use. Trim any significantly loose fibers with scissors. If extensive fraying occurs, consider replacing the mat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the mats and allow them to lay flat for a short period. If using the adhesive tapes, ensure the surface you intend to attach the mat to is clean and dry. Peel off the backing of the tape and firmly press the mat into place.

Compatibility: These mats are compatible with most indoor environments. They can be placed on hardwood floors, carpets, tile, walls (painted or wallpapered), and fabric upholstery. The non-slip backing provides stability on smooth surfaces, while the adhesive tapes offer secure mounting on vertical or angled areas.

Care: To clean the mats, a quick vacuuming is usually sufficient to remove loose cat hair and debris. For more thorough cleaning, take the mats outdoors and give them a firm shake. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this may damage the sisal and backing. Regular inspection of the mats for wear and tear is recommended.
