Every cat needs a way to sharpen and sharpen its claws. The need to scratch is innate to the cat. It is one of the primal instincts when cats lived in the wild and had to hunt and climb by themselves. For this they needed their claws. At the same time, scratching marked the territory, because a cat secretes scents when scratching, which signal to conspecifics who owns this territory. Today’s house tigers have few opportunities to sharpen their claws. Only the scratching post offers a refuge, where the cat can live out its urge intensively without causing damage. Who does not want to set up a scratching post, must expect that the cat chooses a piece of furniture or the wallpaper for scratching.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What should a cat tree be made of?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A cat scratching post should be a compromise of your cat’s needs and your own ideas. An XXL cat tree with scratching, climbing, lying and hiding possibilities for your cat is of no use if you cannot move around in your living room. In small apartments, cats are also satisfied with a scratching board or scratching cardboard in their favorite place and with an empty cardboard box as a hiding place, if the scratching device is properly placed. After all, cats love to have an overview of what’s going on in the room. Although they are basically loners, they like to stay in company.<\/p>\n\n\n

If you buy a cat tree cheap, then you usually get no more simple scratching post, but a cat tree with cat possibilities and different levels for climbing, playing and hiding: a piece of furniture just for your cat. One cave as a hiding place per cat is enough<\/a>. On the cat tree, prefer surfaces made of the plant fiber sisal. Some scratching posts feature surfaces made of wood and wickerwork made of water hyacinth or banana leaf. These are also suitable, provided that the scratching surface begins close to the ground and extends to the first viewing platform at the height of 80 cm to 100 cm. Cats like to stretch and stretch while scratching. Therefore, the first level should not be placed too low. Make sure that the scratching post is stable, so that the cat is not frightened when things get a bit more turbulent during play and the scratching post suddenly wobbles. A large Nobby cat tree is braced as a cat tree ceiling tensioner between the ceiling and floor. He stands like the Trixie cat tree Filippo then bombproof. For a little more money you get a cat tree for heavy cats with removable cushion and pillows<\/a>. If necessary, the cushions can be washed in the washing machine without any problems. Make sure that the posters are not too soft, so that they keep their shape for a long time, and the fabric on the seats is only glued and not attached with staples. The latter pose a possibility of injury to the velvet paws. If you have two cats, you should buy two scratching posts, so that each cat has its own refuge. A cat tree stable for several cats can reach dimensions of 175x100x118 cm. Even with a scratching post large or small, there are models made of certified untreated wood from sustainable forestry and with eco-textiles according to Oeko-Tex Standard 100. At some scratching posts toys are integrated. On others, there is the option to attach your own cat toys. Experts recommend at least two toys on a scratching post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
