Troubleshooting

Cat is not using the scratch board

Try sprinkling a small amount of catnip on the board to attract your cat's attention. Place the board near areas your cat already scratches or sleeps. Ensure the board is in a location your cat feels safe and comfortable using.

Cardboard is fraying or tearing quickly

This is normal wear and tear for cardboard scratchers. If it happens very rapidly, ensure your cat is not using it as a chew toy. For heavy scratchers, regular replacement might be necessary.

Board is dusty

Gently wipe the surface with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using water heavily, as it can degrade the cardboard.
