What is in it

Some cats scratch the carpet rather than the sofa. A flat mat suits them.

A scratching mat made of sisal rope on an EVA base. It lies flat, so it suits cats that stretch out and rake at the floor rather than reach up a post. It fits beside a bed or at the foot of the sofa.

Sisal is hard-wearing and the surface will fray a little, which is normal. Replace the mat once it has worn flat.

How it works

  1. 1
    Put it where they already stretch

    Next to the sofa, a door or the bed.

  2. 2
    Scent it once

    Rub a little catnip or silvervine on it to start.

  3. 3
    Replace when flat

    When the rope is worn through, swap it for a new one.

Works best if

  • Your cat scratches the rug or carpet
  • You want a floor-level scratcher
  • You are short of space

Skip it if

  • Your cat only scratches upright surfaces
  • Your floor is slippery and you do not want to put a mat underneath

Questions about this one

Will it slide?

On smooth floors it can. A rubber mat underneath helps.

Which shape will I get?
