Top 7 Best Scratching Posts

Tired of your cat scratching the leg of the dining room table? My cats used to scratch the floor speakers to my stereo when they were kittens. Very quickly I got them a scratching post, catnip, and praised them whenever they used the post. It worked!

If your cat has been finding things to sharpen her claws on – toilet paper roll, leather messenger bag, or the rug – it might be time to replace or buy a scratching post. Not sure what one to get?
