Instructions
- Place the post in a room where the cat spends a lot of time. Cats often like to stretch and scratch when they wake up from a nap.
- To introduce the post to your cat try using catnip as a lure. (For most cats a lure is unnecessary, but fun.) Rub catnip onto the sisal material and call the cat over to the post.
- Scratch your nails along the surface of the material. This will attract the cat and at the same time teach him where to scratch.
- After your cat begins to scratch, praise him and give him a food treat. (Small kittens can be trained to climb the post by showing them food treats and placing it at the top of the post.
- If your cat has already been scratching a piece of furniture, place the post directly in front of it.
- Temporarily cover the previously scratched areas with a few strips of double-sided carpet tape or clear double-sided tape strips that are designed for this purpose. This will help redirect your cat’s scratching activities to the post.

Ashley –
This cat post is a great size, tall enough so my cat can get a full stretch. She wasn’t interested in it at first, but once she figured out what it was, she loves stretching and digging in her claws. I did sprinkle some cat nip on it and put some toys on the top to entice her, and after a few days of just sitting by it, she decided to give it a try. Some people complained about a chemical smell but I don’t notice any smell. I have a very sensitive nose and this does not bother me at all. It only took minutes to screw on the bottom and it was all set up. My older cat has used the post a couple of times, but he prefers to play with the box instead. I cut off the ends and it’s a great tunnel for him to hide in. To each his own. 😸
