Periodically, the base of each nail is encased in a scaly outer layer or sheath. This scaly sheath causes them discomfort when they retract their claws. Scratching is the cat's natural method of removing the sheath to maintain healthy claws. In nature, cats will scratch trees or logs, so in the house, cats often turn to furniture as a substitute. Sprinkling a generous amount of genuine Cosmic Catnip onto the scratcher will encourage frequent scratching and redirect the behavior from the furniture to the scratcher. Why use a Cosmic Catnip Scratcher: Cosmic Catnip Scratchers provide cats with a scratching surface they can't resist and are reversible for double the scratching life. Cats appreciate the nooks and crannies in the corrugated cardboard that help them groom their claws as they scratch. The alpine angle allows for natural stretching and scratching while the toy is a fun bonus for playful cats. Cosmic Catnip has been grown to achieve the strongest, most aromatic catnip ever produced. Cosmic Catnip scratchers include Cosmic Catnip for the perfect solution in claw maintenance. Cats and furniture can live in complete harmony! When you think catnip, think Cosmic!
