Find the right cat scratcher

Choosing a cat scratching post or scratcher? Think about your cat's size, scratching habits and favourite ways to play. Some cats enjoy stretching upwards on a post, while others prefer scratching along a flat surface.

Explore different shapes, materials and designs, including options with interactive toys. Check individual product details for dimensions, materials, assembly requirements and suitability before choosing.

Give your cat a place to scratch

Scratching is a natural part of a cat's behaviour. Providing a dedicated scratching surface gives your feline friend somewhere to stretch and use their claws, while helping redirect scratching away from furniture.

Place your scratcher somewhere stable and easy for your cat to reach. For more ways to keep your cat entertained, explore our cat towers range. You can also browse our cat beds for a cosy place to relax.

Keep scratchers ready for play

Check your cat scratcher regularly for loose parts, damage or excessive wear. Follow the product's cleaning and assembly instructions, and choose a stable position that suits the design. Replace damaged products when needed.

Cat scratchers FAQs

How do I choose the right cat scratching post?

Consider your cat's size, scratching habits and preferred surfaces. Look for a sturdy design with enough room for your cat to stretch comfortably, and check the product dimensions before choosing.

Where should I put a cat scratcher?

Try placing it near an area your cat already enjoys spending time in, such as a favourite resting spot or play area. Choose a stable location where the scratcher can be used safely.

What's the difference between a scratching post and a scratcher pad?

A cat scratching post provides an upright surface for scratching and stretching, while scratcher pads usually offer a flatter surface. The right option depends on how your cat prefers to scratch.
