With scratching boards or cardboard scratchers mounted or set up in the right places in your apartment, you can offer your cat alternative scratching options in order to protect your furnishings. It’s best to offer scratching boards & cardboard scratchers from the very beginning so that your cat doesn’t look for alternatives from which you will need to wean it in the future.
Spots near sleeping and feeding areas, which your cat often walks past, are popular locations for mounting or setting up a scratching board or cardboard scratcher. Offering your cat both vertically mounted and horizontally positioned scratching furniture is ideal because cats have different preferences, and many cats enjoy variety. Scratching boards & cardboard scratchers are available in different shapes and sizes. There are even special scratching boards for room corners. A corner scratching board can be bent at a right angle, for instance, and can therefore be mounted in the corner of a room as well as on a straight wall. A scratching mat that invites cats to play as well as scratch offers your cat an additional way to occupy itself. Apart from the scratching option, these products are equipped with various elements that encourage your cat’s instinct to play, like a plush tail, for example.
