Modular cat climbing structure made from paper at Katris

 

Question from MaryJo

Hi Debra,

I am concerned about the recent article in the New York Times about the link between flame retardants and the rise in feline hyperthyroidism.

I am trying to find scratching posts or cat climbing structures that are not made with carpet treated with flame retardants (or just plain awful synthetic carpet and glues).

I am wondering if you have come across anything about this.

Any leads most appreciated~!

Debra’s Answer

Here are some cat scratching posts made with wood and other natural materials:

Natural Scratch

Love That Cat

This article suggests that you give your cat a natural tree log for a scratching post

And here are some cat climbing structures made with wood

Mountain Pet Products

Katris

Cats Play

There are a lot more. Just search on “natural cat scratching post” and “natural cat climbing structure” and you’ll find them.
