About the Cat scratching post with a base

A scratching post is a tall post wrapped in rough rope or fabric for a cat to scratch. Cats need to scratch to stretch and to keep their claws in good shape, and a post gives them somewhere better than the sofa. A good post is steady and tall enough for a cat to reach right up on its back legs. Follow the path up the post on this printable for a pets theme.

  • A scratching post lets a cat scratch and stretch instead of the furniture.
  • A good post is tall and steady enough for a cat to stretch up fully.
