Smart Tips
Scratching Solutions: Smart and caring cat owners know that claws
are very important to cats. Claws give the cat a sense of security, knowing that
their defense system is intact. They also allow the cat to grasp and hold objects
as well as establish footing for walking, running, springing, climbing and
stretching. SmartCat scratching products are designed to maximize your
cat's scratching pleasure by providing an appealing target for
territorial marking, exercise, and a playful warm-up. By regularly trimming your
cat's nails and offering a suitable scratching item, you are
providing a natural outlet for a normal, happy and healthy behavior and you will be
rewarded with a satisfied and confident companion.
Important note about declawing:
Scientific journals refer to declawing as "elective mutilation." It is an
amputation of the cat's toes comparable to the removal of the human finger at the
first knuckle. It handicaps the cat physically, socially and psychologically for
the rest of its life, predisposing the cat to certain temperament and behavior
problems such as shyness, biting and litter box avoidance. By regularly trimming
your cat's nails and offering a suitable scratching target you are providing a
natural outlet for a normal, healthy behavior and you will be rewarded with a
content and confident companion.
