Health & WellbeingGibbs my new 1yr old cat, he's familiar with the pink round platform ball trackor on the left. Because he had one to play with at the Northshore Animal League. At 1st he's would pounce the scratch not understanding he could scratch it as well, until
In truth, I don't think any one brand of cat nip is better than the other. There has never been a study that I know of that has shown one catnip causing any harm or not versus other types. I think you can utilize this as a tool for training on any type of scratching post that works for Gibbs. If Gibb's is not grasping the vertical scratching posts well, I would simply stick with the ground ones. Some cats just prefer to stretch their arms in certain ways, while others prefer alternatives. Hope this helps.
