Scratch Poles & Scratching Posts

 

This unique scratcher is custom made from eastern red cedar (also called aromatic red cedar), a few chicken and ostrich feathers, and a ping pong ball. It is 100% natural, solid cedar, no particle board, plywood, carpet, adhesives, ect. It has not been sealed so it still releases a wonderful cedar scent. Your unit will be approximately 18 " tall, with a trunk that is an approximately 2 1/2" thick by 4 1/2" wide solid slice of cedar that has two surfaces, the natural front and a smooth back. The base is approximately 3 inches thick, 15" long and 4 1/2" wide. It has felt pads to protect your floor from being scratched. And, this scratcher has a mouse hole with mouse! Well, a ping pong ball that acts like a mouse. When your kitty goes for the ball it rolls up the inclined hole then when she removes her paw from the mouse hole the ball comes back with a "pong" sound. Cats are fascinated by it. They don't seem to ever tire of trying to get that "mouse" from its hole. The ball is captive in its hole because the opening is smaller than the ball. You and your cat will love this scratcher and toy! It is uniquely beautiful yet practical and fun. It has been shaped, scraped, and hand sanded smooth yet retains its natural appearance. There are interesting contours and textures for your cats scratching pleasure. And cats can really dig their claws into this scratcher. Eastern red cedar is a perfect scratching medium for cats. The creamy wood is hard enough for satisfying scratching yet not so hard as to splinter and stick in the cats paws. The red heart and knot wood is very fragrant and the reason eastern red cedar is also known as aromatic red cedar. We think you will love this unique scratcher for its natural beauty and wonderful scent and might even think it a shame to let the cats scratch it up. But the cats will love it for being a tree and not boring textile. Each of our red cedar scratchers is handmade by a skilled craftsman, so the photograph is representive of the specific style. Your unit will not look exactly like the one shown, but will be close to its measurements and style. Each piece is a unique work of art! Custom made to order, usually leaves our warehouse in 7 - 10 business days.

The Incredible Cedar Teaser is an eastern red cedar cat and mouse pong toy. It is 12" long by 6" wide and 6" tall. It has been finshed with 3 coats of clear satin polyurathane (same stuff used on wood floors). Cats really love this toy and 3 can play at once because there are 3 mouse holes! Here's how it works....The cat or cats can see the ball from the side and front holes. Once the ball begins bouncing around inside the box, they get excited and put their paws into the hole and try to capture the "mouse". We've seen cats roll on their back and put a paw into each hole, and run away get into an attack stance, and then pounce at the ball, knocking it all the way to the back of the box. The bottom of the box is sloped and cupped so that when the cat removes its paw the "mouse" always returns to the front to torment the cat.

Your unit will not look exactly like the one shown, but will be close to its measurements and style. Each piece is a unique work of art!
