How To Choose A Good Scratching Post For cats

Cats are very exciting animals, they are very good companions and give us happiness all through our days, so after all cats give to us we need to  give back to them in ways that will make them happy as well. One of those ways we can give back to them is to provide them with a correct cat scratching post to satisfy their scratching needs, cats need to scratch, it is part of their nature but the scratching posts cat does not inevitably persuade their scratching urges.

Believe it or not but not all scratch posts are created same, perhaps to a human we think who cares what kind of scratch post the cat uses, but to the cat it is a completely different story, their scratching post is part of their livelihood and is an unconditional necessity for a cat to have a good scratch post.

A few things to gaze for when choosing a correct post for your cat would be first of all the size of the post, The size should be high sufficient for your cat to fully stretch out while using the post, at least 30 inches tall, if your cat is equitably large in dimensions and he or she is using an 8 inch scratch post, that will not be adequate for your cat and they will likely gaze for more adequate scratching solutions such as your couch.

With that let’s proceed to the second most significant factor in choosing a cat post which is stability, why do you believe your cat scratches your couch, because it feels good? Yes, and also because your couch is steady, it does not move or wobble while your cat is scratching it which makes your cat more satisfied, but the entire point of having a scratching posts cat is to avoid from having your cat from decimating your furniture in the first location. That is why you should provide your cat with a steady post.

A third important factor in choosing a good scratching post would be the actual scratching surface, some posts use a carpet enclosed exterior, some posts use bare wood as their scratching surface and some posts use simple untreated sisal rope, every cat is different, some prefer carpet or timber but most like sisal rope as their scratching exterior and in addition to that sisal cord will outlast all other scratching posts cat exterior when it arrives to shreds. Cats like sisal over any other scratching exterior because sisal is more uneven to the feel and cats like an uneven post to scratch which makes sisal the conspicuous alternative.

One more important factor in choosing a cat post will not necessarily make any difference to your cat but it will to you, and that is the value and look of the post, cats will scratch anything you put in front of them being a good value post or a cheap low value post but we as humans understand that we would rather choose a post that will last and will be satisfying to look at because permits face the details, most cat posts are not too pleasing to look at.
