  • I make a new cat scratching post with the features that I think are useful and aesthetic for my living room. Maybe you can take some features for yourself and create a DIY project for your cats and yourself.

    Love it. People usually think the cat should adjust their life to our household demands….don’t get on this, don’t scratch that. But just like having a baby in the house, we must adjust to the cats needs too. That post is so much fun for them, the couch looks boring now!

    You could definitely sell these. I love the way your cat furniture etc harmonizes with the room instead of clashing and disrupting. 😸 Thanks for sharing.

      Maybe if I can get someone else to make them. It takes me too much time and would cost an arm and leg.

    A post that definitely looks good and blends well into the room! And a great idea! Thanks a lot, Francisco! 🙋🏻

    I've done the same thing. I wrapped a 1x4 and screwed it into the wall, leaving a gap (stacked plastic washers) and then tacked artifical leaf stems around it so it looks like a tree branch. I also made another wrapped 1x4 scratching post that hangs over the bedroom door, and is the entire length of the door. To carry the weight and create stability, I connected the 1x4 lumber to a barricade bracket which is an exact fit to fit over the door. Both of these projects only required a drill to drill holes and fasten screws - very simple for most pet parents. My projects are as functional as yours, but definitely lack your craftsmanship, lol. Your work is very professional, you should make it a side business.
    Another cumbersome project I just completed was re-wrapping 6 foot tall cat furniture from Petsmart, because the carpet on the posts was so badly damaged from years of scratching, lol. Wish you had a social media page so I could share the pics.

      He could easily sell these, heck I'd buy one.

      Thanks for your comment, Delight. I can visualize some of what you shared, and the projects sound great. I have my own cat tree that needs re-wrapping.

    Your videos are such a help to me. The one on windows gave me a solution to a cat who pushes through screens and lets everyone out! (A separate frame with hardware cloth that I hang when I open that window.) This scratching post is super, will fit in so much better in my home, and now I understand why they don't really like to scratch their cat tree. Thank you!

    This is a great idea and it does look so much nicer than one just standing in the middle of the room. You could definitely go into business, but I live in an apartment and don't know if I'm allowed to screw into the walls.

      I know, renters have a more difficult time with these improvements. If you made any holes, I'm sure you would have to repair and paint before leaving.

      Right now, it still smells a little weird to the cats, but I'm sure they will love it in time.
