Troubleshooting
Cat is not using the scratcher
Try placing the scratcher in a different location, perhaps near where your cat already likes to scratch or sleep. You can also try sprinkling catnip on the surface to attract your cat's attention.
Scratcher is moving when the cat scratches
Ensure the scratcher is placed on a stable, level surface. For added stability, consider placing it against a wall or furniture.
Cardboard is becoming too worn
When the scratching surface is significantly degraded, it's time to replace the scratcher to ensure safety and continued enjoyment for your cat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The TRIXIE 48030 is a freestanding unit and requires no assembly. Simply remove it from its packaging and place it on the floor in a location your cat frequents or where you wish to encourage scratching.
Compatibility: This scratcher is compatible with all cats, but is *especially suitable for large cat breeds* due to its generous dimensions. It is designed for indoor use.
Care: To maintain the scratcher, periodically check for excessive wear. If the surface becomes heavily shredded, it may be time to replace it. For light cleaning, a dry or slightly damp cloth can be used to wipe away dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive moisture, as this can damage the cardboard.
