 | In my home, we spare no expense for our cats. How can we, when they bring us so much pleasure in the short time they share our lives? Much more coming in September, but I intend to enjoy my four fuzzy best friends on Labor Day. Hope you'll do likewise! Connect With Franny:

Review: Catit Cat Scratchers
I had been happy with various Catit products before, so I was pleased to accept the offer of a Catit Decorative Cat Scratcher for review purposes.

Our home is filled with scratching posts and climbing towers, and most of them are designed for adult cats who enjoy tall vertical scratching.
