Cats often like to stretch and scratch when they wake up from a nap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo introduce the scratcher, try using catnip as a lure. (For most cats this is unnecessary, but fun.) Rub catnip onto the sisal material and call the cat over to the post.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScratch your nails along the surface of the material. This will attract the cat and also teach where to scratch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter your cat begins to scratch, offer praise and a food treat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf your cat has been scratching a piece of furniture, place the scratcher directly in front of it. Cover that area with Sticky Paws or use double-sided tape. This will help redirect your cat’s scratching activities to the scratcher. Shower lots of praise on your cat when you see them using the scratcher to reinforce this positive behavior.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pioneer Pet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45653578350850,"sku":"W3831","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/5741\/1769\/files\/product-media-379973.png?v=1770938847","url":"https:\/\/scruggsfarm.com\/products\/bootsiescombinationscratcher","provider":"Scruggs Farm Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
