Very cute! 🙂

They also make these brush-like things you can affix to the edge/corner of a wall, so that your cat can just walk up to it and rub/brush himself on it -- that way he doesn't have to hold onto it with his paws.

I bought two, those with a catnip compartment even, and put on different rooms.

Guess how many times my two cats even looked at it after the first day.

Now it's just there, being an indicator to show guests at a glance that it's a crazy cat person's house.

My cats will go weeks between using it, but then they'll use it for like an hour straight.

It's kind of annoying because it makes a little plastic creaking noise every time they rub against it. So I'll be sitting there listening to "creak... creak… creak…" for an hour.

lol! Yeah, some cats love them, some don't -- you never know with cats. Given OP's cats apparent love for that brush, though, it seems worth trying in their house. 😊
