Scratching is vital for cat health, it is a normal and natural behaviour that cats need to engage in, so a cat scratcher is an essential item when caring for a cat.

Scratching helps cats to:

• Mark their territory: As they scratch, cats leave visible marks and pheromone scent that reinforce for the cat that they are safe and secure in their home, leading to a confident, relaxed, and calm cat who is happy and content
• Stretch and exercise: When cats are scratching, they are engaging the same muscles used for climbing, pouncing, and leaping. This scratching and stretching workout helps to keep them fit and active and releases pent-up energy that can lead to other unwanted cat behaviours
• Keep their claws and paws in great shape: Scratching not only helps to keep claws smooth and properly shaped; it also assists with circulation to the nail beds of the claws, and the tips of the toe pads, helping to keep cat paws in healthy condition
