How Can I Make a Cat Scratcher?
Creating a cat scratcher can be a fantastic way to give your cat a designated spot to mark their territory with their scent and pheromones. Here’s a simple guide to help you make a DIY cat scratcher at home:
Things You Will Need:
- Corrugated cardboard
- Scissors
- Non-toxic glue stick
- Rubberbands
How To:
- Cut strips from your cardboard and begin coiling them together.
- Create a cardboard spiral or square, use the glue stick and rubber bands to hold your cat scratcher together securely.
- Keep going until you create your desired shape, disc or square shape where your cat can stretch.
Tips:
- Make sure the scratcher is stable so it won’t tip over when your cat uses it.
- Regularly check the scratcher for wear and tear, replace worn cardboard when needed.
- Encourage your cat to use the scratcher by placing it near their favourite spots and by rewarding them with treats when they use it.
By providing a homemade cat scratcher, you’re not only giving your cat a place to mark their territory but also helping to keep your furniture safe from scratches. Enjoy watching your cat engage with their new scratcher!
