Cat
Trees are posts made of carpet usually, for cats to use their claws
on. It's great exercise for cats. And also keeps your furniture intact.
Cat Trees are made because scratching is a natural hardwired behavior
in cats, just like breathing and purring. Although many humans do not
appreciate when their cats scratching, you have to know that kittens
and cats do not scratch to make us angry, they just need to scratch.
That’s why Cat Trees are so great.
Cat Trees help cats who scratch around their immediate environment to
signal their presence to other cats and to claim the area in question.
The marking takes two forms: visual and olfactory. The visual is in
the form of clawing marks and is so obvious that even we humans can
recognize it. The olfactory mark is subtler, involving the release of
pheromones. These are substances secreted from the body to be picked
up by the number of the same species, causing them to alter their behavior.
