Frequently Asked Questions
Kittens have a natural instinct to scratch. It helps them shed the outer layers of their claws, mark their territory, and stretch their muscles. Providing a scratching post allows them to fulfil these needs without damaging furniture or carpets.
Picture a scratching post like a little gym for your kitten's claws. The best ones are sturdy and covered in rough material, kind of like tree bark. They're tall enough for your kitten to do a full-on stretch while they work out those claws.
Ah, the classic furniture vs. scratching post standoff. If your little furball is still eyeing up the sofa, try adding some double-sided tape or aluminium foil to the furniture—they're like the "no-go zones" for scratching. And make sure the scratching post is as tempting as possible with some catnip sprinkled on top.
Think of claw trimming like getting a haircut—helps keep things tidy but doesn't replace a good grooming routine. While trimming can help minimise the furniture shredding, a scratching post is still key for your kitten's claw health and overall happiness.
