FUKUMARU Cat Scratcher Mat. 23.6 X 15.7 Inch Natural Sisal Cat Scratch Mats. Horizontal Cat Floor Scratching Pad Rug with Sticky Tapes. Protect Couch and Carpets

This is a well-made cat scratching pad. Sadly, it did not work for my two cats. I’ve had it now for a few months to see if they would warm up to it and use it for scratching, but they don’t. They prefer just to sit on it now and then. The product is well-made but it just didn’t work for my two cats.

After having searched online for extra heavy duty sisal fabric to replace the original fabric that came on a scratching post with no success, I decided to try a different approach. Fortunately, the material on this mat is flexible enough to bend around the four corners of the post and it turned out great. The mat is held in place with wood screws on the back side which are not visible in the picture.

My babies love it and i love it because it doesn't leave cardboard shards all over the house! I wish there was a better way to stick it to carpet but it's holding up well.

What I like is that my cat likes this mat. She can often be found stretching or simply curled up on it on a sunny day. I every so often will drop a pinch of cat nip on the mat, which makes her rub her cheeks on the mat before rolling over on it with great joy.

READ READ READ. I forgot to read and actually measure out where I wanted this mat to go. Is it a mat? Ehhh, depending on how you plan to use it, possibly. Probably best suited for the bottom of a cat tree or on a very small piece of furniture you want to protect from your cat.
I was hoping to use it to replace my doormat that my cats annihilated, but it’s much too small.

My cats definitely do use it! Originally, I meant to have it as a mat near their cat tree. They did not dig it being on the floor. Stuck it to the wall though? Much better. They normally use it at least once a day, but not crazy often.

Here's a tip: If you're "mounting" it to the wall you may want to get a few velcro strips to reinforce it.

Great Scratcher, but does easily come off from cat scratching it. Only disappointment in this product . Gonna have to put extra tape on it maybe frog tape 😆 lol

I put a little catnip spray on this and my cat uses it consistently! He chooses it over my couch which makes me happy. I didn’t realize it came with adhesive Velcro strips so I bought command strips to hang it, but I figured I would try the strips it came with first. They work alright, but every time my cat scratches, part of it pops off the wall. I just push it back down. We will see how long it survives before I end up using the command strips.

my cats used it more when it was on the ground rather than the wall but as far as the product is concerned I have no complaints other than the adherence. I ended up nailing it to the wall instead.

Well made, but could have been a little larger. This statement because Lucky is part, more most than less, Maine Coon, 3ft. w/tail. To him size doesn't matter: he still tries to fit in paper bags. The most suitable piece of equipment to withstand my boy's 1" claws. Durable, tough as nails. And, it hasn't shredded like other brands.

A feral cat came into our backyard in January and decided to stay permanently. There are other cats that come to our yard, but they leave after eating. Because of the cold weather, I had set-up our picnic table as shelter for cats. I placed barnhomes or cathouses under it. Last month, I called him Timi, and offered him a plate of food. He came to me and from then on, he became our outdoor pet cat. Timi was a very sweet cat. I am looking for someone to adopt him. On Mar. 2, we took him to our Vet for health check. He was given vaccines. Now that weather has warmed up, I created various types of shelter, such as this "tent", just behind our kitchen. I bought him a new scratcher, toys, etc. He still loves the old one made of cardboard, which I placed inside the Amazon box.

I thought I would see if this lasts longer than those cardboard scratch pads, which my cat loves.
A pinch of catnip and he’ll roll around on it for a bit and be happy.

Seems like a decent scratch board but it is too thin and not heavy enough. When my aggressive cat goes to scratch it, it doesn't offer enough resistance. My cat has claimed victory and uses at a sleeping area. Well made product, my cat is just to aggressive with the kneading. Her name is Kneaders

So far seems good. Haven't scratched on it or anything yet but one of my cat likes to sit on it every time (and also a size comparison compared to my bigger cat). Its a good quality mat but lowkey hoped the size was a bit bigger. 😊

My cats took to this right away, lying on it and sharpening their claws. As they have another sharpener, I mostly use this to trap the kitty litter by putting their litter box on it, and it works well for that. I gave it four stars because it smelled chemically when I first unwrapped it and I had to leave it outside for a few days. Companies, we really want you to stop using chemicals!

My cat immediately took to the mat, and scratched it. She knows it's for her. I did spray a little catnip spray on it first to attract her. So far, so good, on day 1. Hopefully she will continue to scratch the mat instead of the area rug. Smaller than I expected but I sometimes don't size things out even though measurements are provided. I would recommend other buyers to measure it out so you get the right size for you. Our cat is 8 lbs and a larger one would be preferred but this one is fine.
