Choose their yes

Pick their favorite way to scratch.

Some cats reach up. Some dig in down low. Some change their mind before breakfast. Start with the motion you already see at home.

Still unsure? Sofa arm = Bennu. Rug or floor = Agatha. Both = the Duo.

A tiny redirection

Scratching is not the problem. The target is.

Scratching helps cats stretch, mark their space, and maintain their claws. Give that instinct a better destination and the sofa can finally clock out.

01

Your sofa did not sign up.

The arm is tall, sturdy, and conveniently right there. Bennu offers a much better yes.

02

Neither did the rug.

Floor scratchers want room to pull and push. Agatha gives them a broad, satisfying surface.

03

Your cat is being a cat.

No scolding required. Make the right choice easy, nearby, and rewarding to use.

Watch the paws

How does your cat scratch?

The easiest way to choose is not their size or age. It is the direction their body already takes when the scratching mood arrives.

See the scratch

No actors. Just cats doing cat things.

Real movement tells you more than a perfect studio pose. Watch how each shape supports a different scratching instinct.

Real cat footage

Agatha: scratch, stretch, sprawl.

A roomy horizontal surface with a curve that makes lingering feel inevitable.

Real cat footage

Bennu: reach all the way up.

A tall face and grounded base for dramatic paws-up stretching.

Quick answers for curious humans.

A few practical answers before your cat walks across the keyboard.

Which scratcher should I choose?

Choose Bennu for cats that scratch upward, Agatha for cats that scratch across the floor, or the Duo when your cat does both or you want options in more than one room.

Will this guarantee my cat stops scratching furniture?

No scratcher can promise that. Placement and introduction matter: put it close to the current target, reward interest, and give your cat time to build a new habit.

What are the scratchers made from?

The scratching surfaces use dense layered recycled cardboard made to give claws a satisfying texture and resistance.

What if my cat does not use it right away?

Place it where scratching already happens, make it easy to approach, and try a little catnip or play nearby. Avoid forcing paws onto the surface.

Give the claws a better yes.

A scratcher will not change who your cat is. It simply gives that very cat-like instinct somewhere better to land.
