A Furniture Savior – The Cat Scratcher Keywords: dog clippers, cat scratcher

A decision is not yet clear regarding whether dogs or cats are the most beloved pets worldwide, it is undoubtedly a tie, but either way, they both conquer daily millions of sofas in the homes of caring people. While treating pets like children with so much love, attention, and respect, everyone lets them roam freely through their homes. When it comes to the training process, dogs have proven to be more receptive and focused on their owner's commands, resulting in easier training, whereas, with cats, things are much more complicated. Cats are often independent and less obedient than dogs, and they are used to doing whatever they want when they want – mostly at 4 am. Like one coated and long-furred dogs need getting a trim with the dog clippers, cats need a special place in your home to peacefully allow their instincts to go wild, like a cat scratcher.

Why Does a Cat Scratch? This scratching behavior may be unusual for other animals, but it comes naturally due to their instincts for cats. It represents a healthy behavior that, besides sharpening their claws, helps reduce their stress and anxiety levels. Most felines do it on purpose to stretch their legs and mark their territory. Animals sweat through their paws, and they release specific hormones while sweating. Leaving these hormones on various surfaces is considered to limit their own space. Their favorite place to perform this action is commonly chosen on the side of sofas and carpets. To avoid having your furniture left with scratch marks or your carpet with its fabric pulled out, you can invest in a cat scratcher post. You can save your furniture by repainting it or your carpets by using dog clippers to trim them. To avoid such problems reappearing, it is best if you provide your feline with a safe place to freely exhibit her behavior.
