Cats and kittens are playful animals and will look for things to do to keep themselves amused.
In the house this behavior can cause problems for your decor and furniture as the cat uses these to play with, and more especially to sharpen their claws.
An excellent way to preserve your furniture is to purchase some furniture for them.
This comes in many styles and types and provides an excellent way for your cat to have some fun and enjoyment indoors as well as a place for them to sharpen their claws.
Cat furniture is generally made from wood and the types available can vary from cat trees to cat condos.
Cat trees are an excellent way to let your cats or kitten spend some time climbing and also sharpen their claws.
They come in various sizes from simple scratchers to larger trees on which they can climb and sit.
They can also be covered in material such as sisal or carpet which cats enjoy scratching.
Cat gyms and larger playgrounds are similar in nature and are wooden towers on which cats can show their talent for climbing and jumping.
Cat condos are more elaborate structures and can act as a small house with places in which a they can hide or curl up and enjoy a good sleep without being disturbed.
Other furniture includes cat perches to give them a high spot to sit and survey their domain and also stairs which can be used to assist cats getting to their favorite places in the house.
Whichever type of cat furniture you choose this should help to keep your cats and kittens happy, giving them something to do, somewhere to sleep and somewhere to scratch.
This should go a long way to helping the décor in your home remain in good condition and make you a happier owner.
