Cardboard Cat Scratchers vs. Sisal Posts
Cardboard scratchers provide cats with a particularly pleasant scratching texture. Compared to sisal, they are quieter, gentler on claws and extremely popular among cats thanks to their unique surface. cat-on® uses FSC-certified cardboard with long wood fibers, ensuring durability and stability while producing the iconic “cat-on sound”. Manufactured with vegan, odorless glue – sustainable and safe for both cats and humans.

Which Cats Need XXL Scratching Posts?
Our XXL scratching posts and large-format scratchers are designed especially for big and powerful cat breeds such as Maine Coon, Norwegian Forest Cat and Ragdoll.

Frequently Asked Questions about cat-on® Scratching Furniture
Are corrugated cardboard scratching posts safe for cats?
Yes. High-quality corrugated cardboard is completely safe for cats when processed without harmful substances. cat-on® uses FSC-certified cardboard and vegan, odorless glue, ensuring that no toxins or fragrances come into contact with your pet. The material is soft enough to protect the claws while still offering an irresistible scratching resistance.
How long does cardboard scratching furniture last?
Longevity depends on your cat’s scratching habits. Many customers report their cat-on® scratchers lasting several months to over a year. Thanks to dense, multi-layered cardboard with long fibers, the furniture maintains structural stability significantly longer than conventional cardboard scratchers.
How do I clean my cat-on® scratching furniture properly?
Cleaning is simple: loose cardboard fibers can be removed by gently tapping or vacuuming the surface with a brush attachment. Avoid using water or cleaning sprays. For more persistent dirt, shaking out the scratcher outdoors is often sufficient.
Is the scratching furniture also suitable for large cats?
Absolutely. Many cat-on® models are designed specifically for large breeds such as Maine Coon, Norwegian Forest Cat, or Ragdoll. The robust cardboard layers and wide lounging surfaces provide stability and comfort even for heavy cats. Our XXL designs are especially popular in multi-cat households.
What material is cat-on® scratching furniture made of?
We use FSC-certified corrugated cardboard with long wood fibers, resulting in exceptional strength and durability. The glue used in manufacturing is vegan, odorless and completely safe for cats and humans. Every scratcher is handcrafted in our Berlin workshop.
What is the best material for cats to scratch on?
Most cats prefer materials that offer the right amount of resistance and an appealing texture. High-quality corrugated cardboard is often favored over sisal because it is quieter, gentle on claws and allows for more natural scratching movements. Many cats instinctively choose cardboard as their preferred surface.
How do I find the perfect piece of cat furniture for my pet?
Consider your cat’s habits: Does it scratch horizontally or vertically? Does it enjoy lounging or prefers climbing? Our range includes loungers, scratching boards, sculptural scratchers and XXL models for large breeds.
