Just the idea of incarcerated cats makes me very sad. Making their (hopefully temporary on the way to their loving, forever homes) stays more comforting with a case of these wonderful scratchers makes me happy!

Hi Kate,
That’s a worthy cause – donating a box of scratchers (or toys) to a cat shelter.
It will improve the quality of life by giving them a way to stretch and sharpen their claws and play.

jmuhj, I take great offense to your comment. I work at an animal shelter and the cats at my shelter are NOT incarcerated! Yes, they live in cages and in multi-cat condos, but in NO WAY are these cats “prisoners.” The cats receive love and attention on a daily basis from staff, volunteers and customers. It is NOT THE CAT’S FAULT that she ended up in a shelter – it is the previous owner, whether from lack of income, a new baby, etc. A lot of people have the same misconception that you do about shelters and caged animals. It is for the animal’s safety and protection and for the safety and protection of the animals around them. When you house many animals together without means of confinement, tension can arise. Because cats are animals, not humans, and they can react violently towards each other in tensional situations whereas humans can (for the most part) work out a tensional situation with reason and logic. Many shelters do not have staff that stay overnight, meaning no one can respond to a dangerous cat fight due to a tensional situation or to a curious cat chewing on an electrical cord. And some cats do not get along with other cats, so it would be dangerous and stupid, to say the least, to allow these cats to roam freely within the shelter.
