The present invention belongs to the field of cat scratching boards, in particular to a foldable cat scratching board.
The cat scratching board is designed according to the cat's habit of grinding claws. Because the cat's nails are sharp, it is necessary to peel off the aged cutin on the claws by grinding the claws. Therefore, the cat will take the furniture or clothes in the home as the object of grinding claws, which will cause the furniture and clothes to be damaged. Therefore, in order to protect the furniture and personal clothes at home from pet damage, cat owners usually use a cat scratching board to provide a comfortable and safe environment for grinding claws.
However, the existing cat scratching boards are mostly fixed structures, such as the common straight board or inclined board structures. The straight board structure has a relatively large structure and occupies a large area. The inclined board structure can make good use of the vertical space, and it is more beneficial for cats to grind their paws while satisfying their climbing habits. However, the inclined board structure occupies a large space, which is inconvenient for daily transportation and is not conducive to the promotion of the cat scratching board.
The main object of the present invention is to provide a foldable cat scratching board.
