Reversible Cat Scratcher Made from Renewable Materials
Product Description
The KONG Naturals Single Scratcher is designed to satisfy cats' instinctual need to scratch by providing a dedicated, eco-friendly surface that protects furniture while keeping felines healthy and engaged. Specialized glands in cats' paws release pheromones when they scratch, making this behavior both natural and essential.
Features
- Reversible scratch pad
- Eco-friendly cardboard construction
- Honeycomb scratch surface
- Recyclable design
Benefits
- Satisfies Natural Instincts: Provides a dedicated scratching surface that allows cats to express their natural pheromone-marking behavior.
- Promotes Claw Health: Regular scratching on this surface helps cats naturally shed the outer layers of their claws, keeping them trim, healthy, and conditioned naturally.
- Encourages Play: Included Premium North American Catnip stimulates cats' senses and encourages interaction with the scratcher, especially for cats new to the product.
- Stress relief: scratching is totally natural for cats, and this gives them a proper spot to do it. Helps them chill out, burn off extra energy, and stay less anxious through the day.
Materials Used
99% cardboard and 1% catnip.
How to Use
Usage Instructions
- Remove Perforated Flap: Open the front of the box by removing the perforated flap to expose the honeycomb scratch pad surface fully before use.
- Apply Catnip: Sprinkle approximately one quarter of the enclosed catnip bag directly onto the honeycomb scratch pad surface to attract your cat's attention.
- Place Strategically: Set the scratcher in a location that is already familiar and comfortable to your cat, such as near their usual resting or play area.
- Encourage Interaction: Rub a small pinch of catnip held between your fingers in front of your cat, then sprinkle it on the pad to release the natural oils that attract them.
Additional Information
Care Instructions
- Flip when worn: When one side of the scratch pad becomes heavily worn, flip it over to expose the fresh second side, extending the overall lifespan of the product.
- Recycle when done: once both sides of the scratch pad are worn out from use, you can just recycle the cardboard properly.
- Keep it dry: store the scratcher inside in a dry place, away from water or damp areas, so the cardboard stays in good shape and the catnip keeps working longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can the scratch pad be flipped over when one side wears out?
Ans: Yes, the scratch pad features a reversible design that allows you to flip it once one side becomes worn. This doubles the usable surface area, significantly extending the overall life of the product.
Q2: What materials is this scratcher made from?
Ans: This scratcher is made from 99% cardboard and 1% catnip. It is crafted from renewable, eco-friendly resources and is fully recyclable once it has been worn down through regular use.
Q3: Does this scratcher come with catnip included?
Ans: Yes, it comes with a bag of Premium North American Catnip. You are instructed to sprinkle about one quarter of the bag onto the honeycomb scratch pad to attract and encourage your cat's interest.
Q4: How do I get my cat interested in using the scratcher for the first time?
Ans: Put the scratcher somewhere your cat already likes to hang out. Sprinkle a bit of catnip on it, and gently rub a small pinch between your fingers near your cat so the smell comes out stronger. Give your cat a little time to get used to it, once they warm up to it, they’ll likely start using it regularly.
Q5: Can this scratcher help prevent cats from scratching furniture?
Ans: Yes, providing a dedicated scratching surface encourages cats to direct their natural instincts appropriately. Cats scratch to mark territory through pheromone release, and offering this scratcher helps redirect that behavior away from furniture.
