Scratching Posts and Cat Scratchers

You humans just don't understand the scratching thing. I assume this is because you don't have claws. Poor you. There's nothing that feels so good as digging your claws into something and pulling. It's exquisite. So you guys need to get us cats as many scratching surfaces as possible. Otherwise we'll claw your couch, box springs and any other surface with a nice texture. Consider this a warning. If you want more choices, use the PETsMART search box at the bottom of the page.

Deluxe Sisal Scratching Post I don't know if I'd exactly call this a deluxe scratching post - it looks pretty standard to me. I guess the deluxe part has something to do with the sisal - an active cat can really tear apart the usual carpet-type material, and sisal's a lot more durable. Me? I don't care - just give me something to scratch! If this thing lasts longer, then that's a human benefit, not a cat benefit.

Platform with Sisal Post and Toy Well, this one is almost deluxe - it's got the sisal, and it's got a platform, and it's got a toy hanging off it! Oh, and the descriptions says it's "made entirely from recylcled materials so it is 'Earth Friendly'." I know how wasteful you humans can be, so here's a chance for you to redeem yourselves.

Corner Scratcher Now this looks very interesting! This sisal with carpet border scratcher fastens onto a handy corner with two nails (nails not included). That way we can get in some good, long back stretches along with our scratching. Mmmmm - it feels good just thinking about it!

Whisker City Play Cavern Scratcher My human really loves these things because they're cheap and we use them. She doesn't notice that while we're using them, we're grumbing, "Stupid, cheapskate human won't buy us a decent cat tree and thinks this is just as good - ha!" Okay, I admit we do like this scratcher. It's catnip scented, and I love ripping out the toy that's hidden in the hole. My human likes it 'cause she says it keeps me busy.

Deluxe Carpeted Scratching Post Ah, here's another "deluxe" reference. These people certainly have a different definition of "deluxe" than I do! I'd call this "Absolutely Basic, Plain Wrap Scratching Post for Humans with Small Wallets and Even Smaller Imaginations." But I guess it's all a cat really needs. I'm sure you cat has some frustrations he'll need to express, and this scratching post is the perfect victim for him to express himself on.

Whisker City Scratcher with FREE Toys Now, I like this idea - a scratcher that comes with toys! Being a cat, I don't really care about the "free" part - we don't need money like you humans do. Toys I understand. Scratching I understand. Toys and scratching are good. Free? I guess if it appeals to you humans, that's okay too.
