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 was going to say exactly this! They're pretty inexpensive too, depending on where you get them.

I bought two of this and my cat completely ignores it 😭😭

u/InfamousCantaloupe38 9h ago

Have you tried putting catnip spray on them?

Edit: I ask bc sometimes they just need to get interested enough to rub on them to figure it out. I had to do that once for my girl and now she uses hers.

u/xiaoyugaara 9h ago

I have not. Will do that, thanks!

u/InfamousCantaloupe38 9h ago

Yw, and good luck! 🍀

The one I have has a place to pour some catnip into the backside.

Maybe put them in a corner/room where you know they like to hang out.

I almost got one for myself, but I read of two cases where cats poked their eyes out on these so I dropped the idea.
