Wall Mounted Scratching Post Progress
I installed the latest design of the wall mounted scratching post today, and I’m quite happy with it (so are the kitties!). This version is made of birch plywood, which I have stained with a dark Danish oil (it looks great as plain unfinished birch or you can stain it in any color that you like). I am toying around with multiple sections of sisal or manila, which allows easy replacement of just one section instead of having to re-wrap the entire post….and I will probably add a small section of Floor tile to the top of the post to help protect if from claw scratches.

I am looking forward to experimenting with offering the scratching post in a recycled materials option, and so each scratching post will always be unique and one-of-a-kind. I would actually like to move more toward using salvaged materials in general.
