FAQs

What is the primary material of the scratching post?

The scratching post is made from natural sisal, known for its durability and appeal to cats.

How is this scratching post installed?

This is a wall-mounted scratching post, requiring secure attachment to a wall using appropriate hardware for your wall type.

What are the dimensions of the scratching post?

What color is the scratching post?

Is this suitable for large cat breeds?

While suitable for most domestic cats, its 40cm height might be less ideal for very large breeds that require extensive stretching. It's best suited for moderate stretching needs.

Troubleshooting

Post is not securely mounted.

Verify that appropriate wall anchors are used and properly installed for your wall type. Ensure all screws are tightened firmly, but do not overtighten.

Cat is not using the scratching post.

Try placing catnip on the post or hanging a toy from it to attract your cat. Ensure the post is in a location your cat frequents. Be patient, as some cats may take time to adjust.

Sisal material is fraying significantly.

Some fraying is normal with sisal. If excessive, check the tension of the mounting and ensure the cat is not excessively clawing at loose ends.
