Cat Tips

  What cat doesn’t love scratching up a favorite rug? Usually an heirloom as well, right? Big no-no.

A really rough car mat is a great thing to have around. Cats love to tear them up. Ours would make a two room detour – including a trip over the forbidden rug – to get to the mat.

    Very creative way to recyle something you’d prob toss out. And it counts towards bringing green too.

    This is a great idea – It never would have occurred to me.
    I am trying it tonight!

    Great idea. I will pass it on to my clients with cats and especially those whose cats like to scratch their furniture. Thanks for this great tip.

    This is an especially good idea since it is a “green” idea. A great way to recycle that old car mat and make the kitties happy. Thanks Pawfun.

    That’s a great idea! Should save the chairs. And I’ve got two about ready for the four-foots, They won’t use a scratching post.

    Learned something from the tips: especially keep em guessing. The stairs sound like fun for the kitties, but NOT for me.

    Thanx
