Cat scratching posts & trees

Healthy scratching that protects your furniture.

Scratching posts and cat trees that let cats stretch, mark and maintain their claws healthily — saving your furniture in the process.

Buying guide

A scratching post must be tall enough for your cat to stretch fully and sturdy enough not to wobble. Sisal is a durable scratching surface. A cat tree adds vertical territory and perches, which indoor cats especially value.

Cat scratching posts & trees FAQs

How do I stop my cat scratching the sofa?

Provide a sturdy, tall scratching post next to the sofa and reward use. Make the sofa less appealing (e.g. a cover) while the post becomes the habit.

How tall should a scratching post be?

At least as tall as your cat fully stretched on their back legs. A post that's too short won't get used and may topple.
