Customer Reviews
Very fast shipping, I'm happy, thank you.
They are smaller i expected. Cat will not fit inside the box. Otherwise quality is not bad.
Probably good for kittens or small cat
Cat Scratching Post – Cardboard Scratcher Pad with Catnip
The item is very small! Don’t believe to pick with a cat inside the box. Maybe the little kitten only.
The product was received in good condition. As expected, cardboard boxes are the best for cat scratching posts.

Product Information
Product Information
Give your cat a legal scratching outlet — and save your furniture from becoming the alternative.
The Problem
Scratching is non-negotiable for cats. It removes dead nail sheaths, marks territory through scent glands in the paws, and provides a full-body stretch that's essential for their physical health. Cats don't scratch furniture out of spite — they scratch because they have to. Without a designated scratching surface that satisfies the behavior, your sofa, carpet edges, and door frames will be next.
The Solution
This corrugated cardboard scratcher pad gives cats the texture and resistance they naturally seek when scratching. The horizontal surface accommodates both the flat-scratch posture and the stretch-scratch behavior. Catnip is included to attract cats to the pad immediately — most cats begin using it within minutes of introduction.
Key Benefits
- ✓ Satisfies the scratching drive – Corrugated texture provides the right resistance and sound feedback cats seek
- ✓ Protects furniture – A dedicated scratching surface redirects destructive behavior away from sofas, carpets, and doors
- ✓ Catnip included – Built-in catnip or included packet accelerates adoption; most cats engage immediately
- ✓ Nail health maintenance – Regular scratching naturally removes dead nail sheaths, reducing the need for frequent clipping
- ✓ Low cost, high use – Cardboard scratchers get genuinely heavy use; more cost-effective than most alternatives
Key Features
- Corrugated cardboard surface – Dense, multi-layer corrugation provides the texture and sound feedback cats prefer
- Double-sided usable surface – Flip when one side is worn for extended use
- Catnip included – Catnip powder or spray for initial attraction
- Non-slip base – Stays in place on hard floors; doesn't slide when your cat digs in
- Available in multiple shapes – Flat pad, incline, or curved depending on model
Ideal For
- Cats that scratch horizontal surfaces (carpets, rugs, floor-level furniture)
- Multi-cat households needing multiple designated scratching zones
- Kittens being taught appropriate scratching behavior from the start
FAQs
How do I get my cat to use the scratcher instead of the sofa?
Place the scratcher directly in front of the area your cat currently scratches. Apply the included catnip to the surface. When your cat uses the scratcher, reward immediately with a treat. Gradually move the scratcher to your preferred location over 2–3 weeks once the habit is established. Never punish scratching on furniture — redirect to the scratcher instead.
How long does a cardboard scratcher last?
Heavy-use cats can shred through a cardboard scratcher in 4–8 weeks. Light users may get 3–4 months from one pad. The double-sided design extends life by letting you flip to the unused side. When the surface is heavily shredded, replace — the texture is part of what makes it satisfying.
Is cardboard dust safe to inhale?
Cardboard scratching produces minimal dust and is non-toxic for cats and humans. The small amount of cardboard debris generated is normal and safe. Vacuum the area weekly if debris accumulates.

How It Works
This enrichment product addresses fundamental feline behavioral needs: vertical territory, safe observation points, scratch surfaces, and rest areas with concealment. Indoor cats without vertical enrichment access develop elevated stress hormones and increased inter-cat conflict. The sisal scratching surfaces provide appropriate nail maintenance behavior, protecting household furniture while meeting the cat's instinctive need to mark territory and maintain claw health.
Who It's Best For
- Indoor-only cats that need vertical territory and enrichment
- Multi-cat households where cats need separate vertical spaces to reduce conflict
- High-energy cats (Bengal, Abyssinian, Siamese) that need physical outlets
- Cats that scratch furniture — appropriate scratch surfaces redirect the behavior
- Senior cats that need lower-profile furniture with accessible entry points
