The Indoor Cat

The scratching

Most posts sit unused because he cannot stretch on them.

Thirty steps: the four jobs scratching does, how to read the specification off the sofa he already chose, the height and stability nobody checks in the shop, the three places a post has to be, and paw handling taught a second at a time.

A cat stretched out on a scratching surface
The Couch and the ClawA post he can stretch on, that does not move. Those two things explain most of the posts sitting unused in flats.

Before anything else: Straining with little or no urine is an emergency measured in hours. Blood, crying in the box, or any sudden change in a reliable cat: call your vet.

A cat stretched out on a scratching surface

Why the post failed

Two measurements, and almost every unused post is explained.

A full-grown cat usually needs something around eighty centimetres tall to get a complete stretch. Most posts sold are shorter, because short posts are cheaper to ship.

And if it moves under your own weight, no cat will use it twice. He only has to find that out once.

The Couch and the Claw — a drawn plate

What is inside

Here is exactly what you will learn.

A cat is not going to stop scratching. Offer something better, in a better place.

  • The four jobs scratching does, three of which have no substitute
  • How to read the material, angle and place off the sofa he already chose
  • The height most shop posts fail, and the test that takes four seconds
  • The three places a post has to be before it gets used
  • How to introduce it without ever touching his paws
  • Trimming taught a second at a time, so it is still possible in a year

Two measurements

Most unused posts failed on height, and nobody checked.

He is not going to stop scratching. The only question is whether the better surface is tall enough to stretch on, steady enough to trust, and in one of the three places he actually uses.

Why this one works

The Couch and the Claw gives you this.

Two measurements

Tall enough for a full stretch, steady under your own weight. Most unused posts fail one of them.

Placement over product

Where he sleeps, the door you come through, and the room you sit in.

No deterrents, no surgery

Nothing that startles, and declawing is not presented as an option at any point.

Frequently asked questions

Will it stop him scratching the sofa completely?

Most cats move most of their scratching to a post that is tall, steady and in the right place. Some keep one favourite spot. The book is honest about that rather than promising a result.

Does it cover declawing?

It has one step saying what declawing actually is — the amputation of the last bone of each toe — and that it is not on the list in this collection, at any point.

Are deterrents in the book?

Only temporary surface measures while the post is being learned, and an explicit rule against anything that startles. A frightened cat avoids the room, not the sofa.

Can I use it in a rented flat?

There is a step on exactly that: wall panels, removable mounts, wedged posts, and protecting door frames first.

What format is it?

A PDF, 6 × 9 inches, for a phone or for printing.

Something better, somewhere better

The height, the stability, the material and the place.

This is educational material about living with an indoor cat. It is not veterinary advice, not a diagnosis, and not a treatment for any condition. A cat who stops using the litter box may be ill — that is a question for your vet, not for a method. A cat straining without producing urine is an emergency measured in hours.
