Description
This cardboard cat scratcher gives your cat exactly what they're looking for when they attack the sofa: a thick, corrugated surface that's deeply satisfying to scratch. Choose flat, wave, medium, small or sofa styles, alone or in sets of three, to place wherever your cat likes to stretch, scratch and lounge.
Why cats need to scratch
Scratching isn't bad behavior. It's a natural need that keeps claws in good condition, stretches the muscles of the back and shoulders and lets your cat leave scent marks on its territory. When a cat has no suitable place to scratch, it turns to the sofa, the carpets or the doorframes. The solution is to offer an alternative that's even more appealing.
The texture cats love
Corrugated cardboard has a crisp, slightly resistant texture that gives the claws something to grip. Many cats prefer it to any other material and adopt it immediately.
A style for every cat
Flat scratchers suit cats who like to scratch horizontally and fit easily under a piece of furniture or by the door. The wave style adds a curve that invites stretching and lounging. The sofa model combines a scratcher and a bed, perfect for cats who like to scratch before a nap. Medium and small sizes fit anywhere in the home.
Sets of 3 for the whole home
Cats often scratch in several places: when they wake up, at the entrance of a room, near a window. A set of three lets you place a scratcher in each strategic spot, or keep spares to rotate as they wear. It's also a simple way to test which style your cat prefers.
Placement tips
Put the scratcher right next to the furniture your cat already targets, or close to their bed, since cats love to scratch when they wake up. Sprinkle a little catnip on it, drag a toy across the surface and reward your cat when they use it. Once the habit is in place, you can gradually move it a little further from the sofa.

Before you order
Your questions, honest answers
What other pet parents usually ask before choosing.
Will my cat use it instead of the sofa?
Cats scratch where it feels good and where it matters to them, often near their sleeping spots or the entrance of a room. Place the scratcher right next to the furniture your cat targets, sprinkle a little catnip on it and reward your cat when they use it. Several scratchers around the home work better than one.
Doesn't cardboard make a mess?
Cardboard scratchers do shed small fibers as your cat uses them, it's a sign that they're doing their job. A quick shake outside and a pass of the vacuum keep things tidy. Placing it on a hard floor or a small mat makes cleaning even quicker. A small price for a happy cat and an intact sofa.
How long does it last?
It depends on how often and how hard your cat scratches. Thick corrugated cardboard wears gradually rather than all at once. Once one side is worn down, flip it when the model is reversible, otherwise it's time for a new one. Sets of 3 are handy to rotate and always have a fresh scratcher ready.
Which style should I choose?
Flat scratchers suit cats who like to scratch horizontally and can slide under furniture. The wave style adds a curve for stretching and lounging. The sofa model is a scratcher and a bed at once. Medium and small sizes fit anywhere, and sets of 3 let you test what your cat prefers.

Bought again
Second order, first set finally worn out after months of use.
Medium, set of 3 -
Better than sisal for my cat
She never cared about sisal posts, but horizontal cardboard she can't resist.Medium, set of 3 -
Worn too quickly
My cat is a very heavy scratcher and the middle was shredded in three weeks. I'll flip it, but I expected a bit longer.MediumReply from the shop
Sorry it wore faster than expected. Very enthusiastic scratchers do go through cardboard quicker; flipping it doubles its life, and the set of 3 lets you rotate between them.

Some cardboard crumbs
It does shed bits of cardboard, which is normal for these. A quick vacuum every few days. Cat is obsessed so worth it.Medium, set of 3 -
Holding up well
Six weeks in with two cats, still plenty of life left.
Medium, set of 3 -
Double-sided
When one side gets worn you flip it over. Basically two scratchers in one.Wave, set of 3 -
Simple and works
No assembly, no fuss, no more scratched carpet.Medium -
Set of 3 is smart
One in the living room, one by the bed, one near the door where she used to scratch the frame. All three get used.

Cheap, effective, cats love it. Saved my rug.Medium

Cat sleeps on it more than she scratches it. Still a win.Wave, set of 3

Great for an older cat
Low and flat, easy for my senior cat who can't really stretch up a tall post anymore.Wave, set of 3 -
Wave shape is the favorite
Got the set of 3 waves. One is a scratcher, one is a bed apparently. She naps on the curve.Wave, set of 3 -
Why I keep buying these
I've tried sisal posts, rope scratchers, even a fancy one that cost a fortune. My cat ignored most of them. This flat cardboard style is the only one she uses every single day, usually right after waking up. I keep one near her sleeping spot and one next to the sofa. They do drop some cardboard bits, but a quick vacuum is nothing compared to a shredded couch. When one side wears out I flip it over and get another month.Medium, set of 3 -
Great little scratcher, would buy again.
Wave, set of 3 -
Lasts much longer than I expected.Medium

Instant hit
Put it on the floor, sprinkled a little catnip and my cat attacked it within a minute. She uses it every morning now.Medium -
Good value
Nice dense cardboard. Would like it a little wider for my big cat to stretch fully.Medium -
Ignored at first
My cat ignored it for a week. Moving it right next to the sofa arm she was scratching did the trick. So placement matters a lot.MediumReply from the shop
Thanks for sharing this, it's the best tip there is: put the scratcher right where the cat already scratches. A pinch of catnip helps too.

Kittens love it
Two kittens, they wrestle on it and scratch it all day. Way better than my furniture.Wave, set of 3
