Scratch Panels

Add a Scratch Panel on its own.

A Scratch Panel works flat on a stable, level floor or on a Scratch Canvas easel. Already have one? Another adds a second scratching spot, new artwork, or a fresh surface.

Tiger and Koi are our first two designs. Our plan is to grow the collection with more colors and themes, giving you more artwork to choose from over time.

Panel only. Easel not included.

Our story

Made for Honey and Theo first.

We designed the first Scratch Canvas as a Christmas gift for our rescued littermates. We wanted a scratcher they would enjoy using and we would be happy to live with. What began as something uniquely theirs became something we wanted to share with other cats and the people who love them.

Can I use it flat or take the panel off?

Yes. You can use a Scratch Panel flat in two ways.

Attached to the easel: fold the assembled easel flat with the Scratch Panel still attached and set it on a stable, level floor. There’s no need to take the panel off.

On its own: lift the Scratch Panel off the wooden easel and lay it flat on the floor for your cat to explore, scratch, or sit on. Choose a stable, level spot and supervise first use. If the panel shifts during use, reposition it securely before letting your cat continue.

To put it back on the easel, line up the hook-and-loop strips, press the panel into place, and check that it’s attached securely before your cat uses it.

What is Scratch Canvas made from?

The scratching surface is sisal, with the artwork printed directly onto it. The art your cat sees is the surface they scratch. Each panel has a bound edge, and the easel is wood.

How often will I need to replace the Scratch Panel?

There’s no fixed lifespan or replacement schedule. Wear depends on how often and how hard your cat scratches. Visible scratch marks and some fiber wear are expected and don’t automatically mean it’s time for a new panel.

Consider a fresh panel when the surface is heavily worn or difficult to keep reasonably clean. If a panel is damaged or no longer attaches securely to the easel, remove it from use. When it’s time, keep your easel if it’s still in good condition and add another Scratch Panel.

What designs are available? Will there be more?

Koi and Tiger are available now. Choose either design as a complete Scratch Canvas, with its Scratch Panel installed on an adjustable wooden easel, or as a Scratch Panel on its own.

We plan to add more colors and themes, with Tara leading future artwork. We don’t have release dates or partnerships to announce yet.
