This jute covered scratching post will fascinate your cat! This space-saving accessory’s sturdy jute wrap is ideal for claw sharpening, whilst the two ferret-shaped soft toys are covered in long hair plush and filled with Silver Vine (Japanese catnip) powder, to entice your cat to play and snuggle.

Silver Vine (Actinidia polygama) – also known as cat powder – is made from the leaves of the non-toxic matatabi plant. This plant is part of the kiwi family and grows in the mountainous regions of Japan and China. It is used in foodstuffs, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products, and it is also well known that it can induce a state of euphoria in cats, in much the same way as catnip and baldrian. Cats typically experience a heightened sense of wellbeing when they come into contact with Silver Vine, as well as reduced inhibitions, leading to them licking, rolling on or rubbing their chins and cheeks against toys that have been filled with even a small amount of the substance. The effects last 5-30 minutes and can be used as a distraction at times of particular stress or unease.

Tips for fixing to the wall: Check that the condition of the wall in the desired place is suitable before affixing brackets to the wall. Materials for mounting brackets are not included. We recommend that you purchase screws and wall plugs that are specifically designed to suit your wall from a specialised shop. Use special wall plugs and screws for concrete, hollow walls or plasterboard. Check the stability of the cat tree before allowing your cat to use it. Check the stability regularly and tighten the screws when needed.
