Therefore, Degao Pet Supplies’ pet cat tree is a necessity for cat owners! So How to choose a suitable cat tree?
Every cat shoveler will face a thorny question: how to choose a cat tree? If there were cat owners in the past who were hesitant to buy a cat tree or cat scratching post for their cats, then the current cat owners are wondering How to choose a suitable cat tree.
Since the cat tree is invent by an American zoologist in 1916 to treat cat depression, it is quickly gain the support and support of the majority of excrement shovelers. At the earliest, the cat tree was mainly to provide a place for cats to climb and jump. Later, with the continuous development and the increasing needs of pet owners, it gradually developed into a diversified product, that is, it is required to meet the physiological and psychological needs of cats. It must also meet the beautiful and beautiful requirements of pet owners and be consistent with the overall style and color of the home decoration. Satisfying the physical and psychological needs of cats is naturally the first priority. How to choose a suitable cat tree?
The first requirement that a cat tree must meet is to allow the cat to sharpen its claws. The nails of cats grow continuously throughout their life. Due to the long-term lack of climbing exercise in the house, the long-term non-wearing of the nails will cause the nails to bend and pierce their own flesh pads. I have seen a cat before because it did not grind one part of its claws for a long time. After the nail is bent, it penetrates into the flesh pad under the foot and passes out from the top of the instep, leading to purulent infection. If the pet owner cannot provide the cat with convenient claw grinding facilities, the cat can easily attack the sofa and furniture at home.
The second requirement that the cat tree must meet is to allow the cat to climb, run, jump, and play. Cats often go to trees and houses outdoors, jumping from the roof to the wall. We all know that cats like high places. High places bring them a sense of security and at the same time satisfy their vanity. In fact, this comes from They are genetically like to be able to see every detail below and find prey more conveniently from a high place. Although there is no need to look for prey at home, high places can still bring them a sense of security, and jumping and climbing make them happy.
The third requirement that the cat tree must meet is to satisfy the cat’s hiding psychology. We all know that cats like to hide in a dark cabinet or under the bed, or sleep or sneak up on people passing by. Of course, these places may not be warm and soft, so they choose to sleep on soft beds more often. The simulated cave on the cat tree can satisfy these two points very well. The high place will make the cat feel that it can sleep safely. The semi-closed structure also makes it feel dark and can be hidden inside. In addition, the soft flannelette is also very comfortable to lie on. of.
The fourth and most important requirement that cat trees must meet is the safety of cat trees. Many people like to choose tall and narrow ones when purchasing cat trees. Take up too much space. However, the higher the cat tree. In order to maintain its stability, the more accessories at the bottom and the larger the chassis. Otherwise it may be unstable. Therefore, when choosing a cat tree, it is still necessary to choose a reasonable design that looks stable. Although cats are agile, if the cat tree is not stable enough. The cat may be at risk of injury due to the instability of the cat tree and collapse when jumping on it.
When a cat arrives in a new environment, it is often nervous and afraid. At this time, it is especially hoped that there will be an airtight den where no one can touch it. So that it can slowly observe everything around it. Sometimes when a new cat comes to the house, or when multiple cats are chasing them. They also want to hide themselves to ensure safety. So it is very necessary to have a semi-enclosed kitten house on the cat tree.
In addition, when choosing a cat tree, you must consider the specific situation of your cat. Large cats weigh more than 7-8 kg, and most of them will not climb too high. A stable, strong, and suitable cat tree is the first choice. Small cats who like to jump can choose more fancy designs and more jumping structures. Now Degao Household’s cat tree is design to meet most cats’ own small castles. Integrating functions such as climbing, jumping, playing, looking out, sleeping, and grinding claws. And pursues to simulate the environment of cats in nature as much as possible, increasing They are fun and satisfying. So choose a cat tree that your cat likes the most and is suitable for your home environment.
