Cats like all other petique animals have instinctive behavior. One of these includes scratching which is a perfectly normal behavior. Though scratching can be desctructive especially to your furnitures it should not be discouraged by the pet parent.

What motivates your cats to scratch?

1.Scratching is a grooming behavior as it helps get rid of the dead outer layer of their claws;

2.Scratching is a good for the cat’s health. It stretches and exercises the cat’s body and flexes their feet;

3.Scratching is a good way to reduce the cat’s stress as this releases “feel-good” hormones;

4.Scratching deposits the cat’s scent on the objects to mark their territories;

As pet parents we need to provide our pets with a scratch post that is eco-friendly, biodegradable, sturdy and safe so your cats can have a blast bringing out their inner ninja. Petique provides your cat with the best scratch post. The Kung Fu Paw scratch post three scratch post arms move and stimulates your cat’s natural senses which will not only meant to keep your cats healthy and entertained, it is also sustainable, non-toxic, and safe for the planet.

Place this scratch post where your cats sleep or relaxes so anytime their instinct drives them to stretch and scratch the post is just a paw away. As a supportive pet parent you need to affirm them everytime they scratch on the post. This will teach them to scratch on the right surface and not on your couch or furnitures.
