Possible Method to Keep Kitty Away from TP

Sunday, April 7, 2013 by Jenny Dean

EZ-Load Toilet Paper Holder
Let's be honest here. We all love our cute little balls of fur because they bring such joy to our lives. What we don't love is that they see a roll of toilet paper, and well, we all know what happens next. It can be so utterly frustrating to bring home roll after roll for use (of the good and soft kind, too -- not cheap) only to have your kitten tear into it like it's the best cat toy he's ever had. You spend $30 on a new cardboard cat scratcher for him and he goes straight for the toilet paper you bought for yourself! I can't pretend to understand how or why this happens, but I do know there are some fixes out there.

There is an EZ-Load Toilet Paper Holder that allows you to pop the toilet paper into it, secure it, and then place the cover down on it. Once the roll is in there, you're in the clear. Your cat won't be able to access the toilet paper to either 1) shred it from any angle and 2) unravel it. It also very unlikely that your cat could somehow get through the plastic of it to wreak any more havoc. Consumers who have purchased this item have confirmed that it is indeed cat-proof… to what degree, I think that depends on the determination of your buddy. Our friends are rather curious so it's hard to imagine anything getting in between them and their "explorations." At the same time, if any cat products stand a chance at stopping them from shredding toilet paper, the EZ-Load Toilet Paper Holder is one of them (and only for $12, wow).

A Fun Whale-Shaped Scratcher for Your Cat's Play Area

Thursday, April 4, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Large Black Whale Cat ScratcherCats will just love this item. The Large Black Whale Cat Scratcher is exactly what it sounds like – a product shaped like a giant whale that can be used like a cat scratching pole. Since it is shaped like a whale, your cat can actually recline on it while scratching. This is one of those discount cat toys that gives you a two-for-one deal. You get a reclining bed for your cat, along with a scratching post.

This scratcher features a design on the sides of it that resembles an Orca whale, helping to make your cat's surroundings a little more fun one toy at a time. On the top of the product is a cardboard cat scratcher including a honeycomb design to better benefit your cat. In addition to the look and uses of the pad for scratching, the overall shape of it allows your cat to conveniently recline at any time. The scratcher does not require much room for storage either as it it is only 22” in length and can be placed anywhere around the house without disturbing the flow while still being able to be used by larger cats.

To get your cat accustomed to the Large Black Whale Cat Scratcher, the product comes with organic catnip to attract your cat to it. This toy is a real problem-solver, distracting your wily cat from scratching at your furniture because he has his own furniture, which provides more entertainment than your typical cat scratcher, now.
 

 

A Multi-Use Cat Scratcher That Will Leave Everyone Happy

Friday, March 22, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Catit Style Blow Molded Scratcher, Vase

The Catit Style Blow Molded Scratcher in the Vase style is certainly a more attractive cat scratching pole than most. While its base material is plastic and the actual scratcher is made of sisal rope and corn-husk (keep in mind that it's a blend so it's not as tough as sisal rope by itself), the overall design looks incredibly chic. Its neutral tones allow for it to sit comfortably in any room without looking out of place. This scratcher also has a hollow middle so you can place artificial plants in it that will stick out from the top and make it look like an actual vase. At the same time as you're pleasing your cat with a discount cat toy, you will be pleasing yourself with a new decoration for your home.

The Vase style for this model is a bit thicker around the middle, allowing for more range than a typical rectangular cardboard cat scratcher does. If you add a little bit of catnip into the mix, your cat will love you forever. Since this scratcher has a hollow middle part and is made of plastic, you may want to put a weight inside it for added stability. If not a weight, you could also store your cat's other toys in here. So, not only is this design a cat scratcher, but it also works as storage and an aesthetically pleasing decoration. With a width of 14 inches and height of 13.5 inches, finding a place for the Catit Style Blow Molded Scratcher Vase style in your home shouldn't prove to be too much of a problem, especially since it has multiple uses!
 

 

A Scratcher For Your Cat That Matches Your Decor

Sunday, March 10, 2013 by Jenny Dean

Catit Style Blow Molded Scratcher, HourglassCatit Style Blow Molded Scratcher, Hourglass in the Hourglass style is a far cry above your typical, cheap, iffy quality cardboard cat scratcher. This toy has a bit of flare to it. With a base width of 14 inches and height of 18 inches, it doesn't require too much room so whether you're living in a luxurious penthouse or a small apartment, this toy can work for you. Its base is brown while the actual scratching part is a tannish color, made of a corn-husk and sisal rope blend. Some reviewers, however, feel that the material it has been made of is not durable enough because it features a blend rather than strictly sisal rope.

Because of its neutral colors, it could easily match any given room's decor without becoming an eyesore. You can also place artificial plants inside of it to give it a little something extra. The style of the Hourglass design in particular is rather curvy, allowing your cat a range of options for scratching angles.

In addition to its beautiful design, the Blow Molded Scratcher serves its function well. Unlike the cat scratching pole you will find at the local pet store, this one is incredibly stable. Once you set it upright, your cat shouldn't have any problems, but if you've got a heavier cat, you can also place a weight inside it for added stability. If you want to get your cat even more interested in this cat scratching tree of sorts, add some catnip into the mix. Your cat won't hesitate to tear into this one when a little 'nip is involved!

Ragdoll Cat Adoption Dallas Texas: George - Ragdoll Rescue Dallas Texas

Friday, December 28, 2012 by Ragdoll Rehoming Team

Ragdoll Rescue TexasMasquerag Cordon Bleu (we call him George)

Age: 11 years old
Sex: Male
Fee: $200
Location: Dallas, TX.
E-mail: jtkuehn@gmail.com
Phone: 214-718-5936

George is a lovely Blue Point Bicolor Ragdoll.  In his youth, he was a show cat.  We have only had George about a year and a half.  We are looking for another home for George because my husband developed asthma after we got him.  His doctor recommended getting rid George. George is neutered, does not spray and still has his claws.  He is strictly an inside cat who loves to snuggle and is quite a purr box.  He likes lying on the back of the couch and sleeping with me at night.  Believe it or not, he even comes when I call him for bedtime.  He likes to chase a feather toy and sharping his claws on corrigated cardboard scratchers. George gets along well with cat friendly dogs.  He prefers being the only cat in the household and will not share a litter box with another cat or tolerate a dirty box.  Multiple boxes are a good idea.  One oddity about George is he likes to lick and chew on plastic bags, so it's a good idea to keep those put away.  If he is doing something you don't like, he stops if you hiss at him.  The only doctor's visits (besides for shots, which are all up to date)  were for an in-grown claw, a recurring watery benign cyst that can easily be drained, and a sinus infection.  None of those are currently a problem.  George will come with food, a bed, scratching pads, litter boxes, brush and comb, and records.

The Cat Scratching Playhouse from Four Paws

Friday, December 14, 2012 by Jenny Dean

 Cat Scratching Play House

This cute little cat playhouse is designed to be used indoors however it could also be used as a hide-away in larger outdoor cat playpens, providing the weather was nice. It is constructed of durable cardboard and apparently just clicks together with simple-to-use plastic snap clips. The floor of the playhouse is actually a scratching mat, which means you could do away with any smaller sisal cat scratching posts you have around the house.

Similarly, if using the playhouse in an outdoor playpen you wouldn’t have the hassle of finding a scratching post that fit in the pen along with a hide-away. You get both needs covered with this one item.

According to the reviews the playhouse is very sturdy and will stand up to a fair amount of rough and tumble play from your cats. You get two reversible scratching pads with it, so even if your kitty is a prolific scratcher it will last a good few months…which isn’t bad for the price really.

And just think of the Ragdoll cat pictures you can take with a camera to show your kitty in his or her cutest moments.
