Custom Cat Scratching Post

Custom design your cat's furniture to match your furniture and decor! Exclusive to Cat Post Direct - we offer custom colored posts of your choice. Cats must have an outlet for their urge to scratch, so providing a scratching post for that purpose can save your furniture, drapery and carpeting from destruction.  Scratching posts help cats shed the outer layer of their claws and exercise the scent glands between their toes.  Our posts are handcrafted and constructed with genuine 100% sisal for the post and base. 

 

Sisal Posts: Most cats prefer using posts covered in woven sisal to scratching posts sold in stores that are generally covered with carpeting.  While the carpet can accomplish the same purpose as sisal, it sheds and often resembles the carpeting found on staircases and floors in homes.  In the end you are cleaning up carpet mess and your cat may not make a distinction between the carpet on the scratching post and that in the rest of the house.  These cats often pull at carpeted stairs and floors, and usually benefit from a switch to a post made from sisal.   

Post Specifications:  Cats reach upward and pull down against the post, so a cat's post should be at least half again as tall as he is to allow him to stretch.  The taller and more sturdy the post, the greater the chance of a cat preferring the post to a couch or armchair.

 

Our posts are hand-made individually in our USA factory by cat owners who know what cats like, and sisal rug makers who have the material and know how.
