Nowadays, scratching pads in markets only provide a simple function for pets to grind their claws. However, with this open structure design of cat scratching pads always make home environment messy as the confetti after cats' scratching is all over the place. Also, this kind of open structure design is not going to attract pets' attention for long and they may damage home furnishings as well. Therefore, it is necessary to design and provide comfortable and safe scratching pads for cats to grind their claws, play, rest and sleep and also provide easy scratching pads for pet owners to clean up the confetti as well.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a cat scratching pad, particularly, a scarfing type scratching pad to solve these previous technical problems mentioned above
Accordingly, to solve the previous technical problems, the present invention provides a scarfing type scratching pad, which includes a base board which has a first surface, and a second surface which is opposite to the first surface, and the base board also has a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side, in which these sides are scarfed to the first surface and the second surface. The first side faces to the second side and the third side faces to the fourth side. The first side, the second side, the third side and the fourth side all have a plurality of salients. Each the plurality of side boards has a first surface, and a second surface which is opposite to the first surface, and a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side are all scarfed to the first surface and the second surface. The first side faces to the second side and the third side faces to the fourth side. The third side is scarfed to the second side and the fourth side. The first side has multiple salients going through from the first surface and the second surface. The second side and the fourth side both have multiple salients. Also, a plurality of top boards all have a first surface, and a second surface which is opposite to the first surface, and each top board has a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side, in which these sides are scarfed to the first surface and the second surface. The first side faces to the second side and the third side faces to the fourth side. The first side, the second side and the third side all have a plurality of recess holes going through from the first surface and the second surface; wherein, the salients of the first side of the base board and the second side of the base board. sequentially go through the recess holes of the first side of the side board. The second side of the side board and the fourth side of the side board sequentially go through the recess holes of the second side of the top board and the first side of the top board. The salients of the third of the base board and the fourth side of the base board sequentially go through the recess holes of the third side of the top board and by doing this so as to a cubical shape can be formed.
The purpose of this invention is to grind aging skin off of pets' claws.
Another purpose of this invention is to collect pets' hair and confetti after cats' scratching as the design of this invention is fully wrapped design. Therefore, when pets rolling and grinding inside this invention, scarfing type scratching pad, hair falling off from pets can be collected, therefore, the home environment is not going to be messy and pet owners just need to clean and wipe the floor by using vacuums.
One more purpose of this invention is to provide a place for pets to play relax, rest and sleep. Since arc shape design is applied in this invention, when pets are rolling and playing inside this invention, scarfing type scratching pad, they can enjoy the rocking feeling inside this scarfing type scratching pads. Also, the pet owners can interact with their pets and furthermore, pets can relax fully inside the scratching pads.
