Emery Cat Board, the No-Fuss Grooming Aid

You'll love the Emery Cat Board if you're like many kitty parents across the nation. Either cats claw on the furniture or they don't file them down at all, particularly if they're older cats. In that case, you have to trim your cat's nails. That can become a problem.

Cats don't sharpen their nails when they claw on things. It may look like it, but it's just an old wives tale. One reason, and probably the most important, is to remove the old claw sheaths. Just like hair, claws stop growing and restart new. While hair falls out when the new growth occurs, claws develop an abscission layer or claw husk. When the cat claws with the front paws, he's helping remove it. Cat's normally bite off the layer on the back paws.

Cats also may be marking their own territory with the scent glands in their paws when they scratch. Of course, if you offer the kitty his own Emery Cat Board, it's the perfect place for him to stake his claim. Scratching also is a stress reliever for some cats, so you'd be providing a stress free spot for kitty to vent.  Since the board is specifically for scratching, you'll never have to punish kitty or command him to quit. (Not that he'll listen even if you do.)

As far as trimming the nails, as the saying goes, "Cat's don't have masters, they have staff." Even if your boss allows you to trim his nails, you still have to worry about how close you trim them. Nails are delicate and if you trim too close, it's painful for kitty and he'll let you know it. You normally never get a second chance. Cats remember every boo-boo you subjected them to and react accordingly.

The Emery Cat Board works like a nail file rather than nail clippers. The honeycombed surface files your cat's nails every time he scratches. Since it has catnip infused into the board, it automatically attracts your cat and invites him to begin scratching. However, not all cats love catnip, so as an additional feature there's a cute toy dangling, just begging him to play.

The pad is a no muss, no fuss operation. As the cat scratches the surface, he's filing his nails down to a reasonable length or removing the outer sheath.  Cat's that claw because their marking their territory now has an object that's really theirs. Those that scratch for stress relief can blow off steam and never receive a harsh word. 

Best of all, the emery board for cats has a money back guarantee.  If you're not happy with it in the first 30 days, the company sends you back the price of the board. In many cases, there are specials such as a free deshedder brush or a buy one, get the second for just the price of shipping. Occasionally the site offers both specials, so you receive a second bonus brush and another scratching board for the price of one board.

You're kitty will love having his own place to scratch away whenever he pleases. You'll love it too...and your furniture will remain in tact. If you like to pamper your feline and shower him with gifts, Emery Cat Board is the perfect Christmas, birthday or special occasion gift for your kitty.
