Is your cat scratching up your furniture?Are you ready to throw poor little kitty out?

In this case, it is recommended to buy your cat a cat scratching tree for it to scratch.

Once your cat learns to scratch its cat scratching tree instead of your furniture, you will be very grateful that you

gave your cat a cat scratching tree.

Here are some of the most important

things to know when getting a cat scratching tree! So listen well...

First of all, when thinking of buying a cat scratching tree, you should determine what cat scratching tree would be best for your cat.

This all depends on your cats size, your cats climbing abilities and your cats age. For older,lazier cats, a climbing tree with more room, more ledges for them to hang of and sleep on and more places to scratch.

For younger cats, it is recommended to have many hanging mice and cat toys on the cat tree, so that the young kittens have plenty of enter

tainment, as they often get bored and restless.

A very important thing to consider when buying a cat scratching tree for kittens, is that most little cats and especially kittens are careless and can easily fall of a tall cat scratching tree and get hurt.
Therefore one should think of buying a wider cat scratching tree for kittens that has many ledges and lots of fun cat toys to play with.

Make sure when buying a kitten scratching tree, that your cat tree doesn't have narrow ledges as the kittens can also fall off this...

If your Cat is a big cat, you might want to get her a large cat scratching tree so that she will have plenty of room to climb and scratch and be able to exercise herself on the tree.

You don't want a fat cat do you?

Also, a cat scratching tree with mice on it, usually keeps a cat busy attacking the mice.

Big Tips for Cat Scratching Tree Colors

When getting a cat scratching tree, you can mostly choose what color you want it in too. Try choosing a color that will best match your house.
If your walls and furniture are light, then you can take a lighter cat scratching tree.

However, if your walls and chairs are dark wood, you might want to choose a dark cat tree.

Never buy a cat tree that doesn't have any cover over the ledges!

(This means that there is no material covering the wood.)

This is cheaper but worse and dangerous for your cat since splinters can get into it's paws and injure it!

Also, a cat tree without any covering material is ugly, plain and unpleasant for your cat to sit on. Therefore, buy a good cat tree that has a material covering to it!
