This jute covered scratching post will fascinate your cat! This space-saving accessory’s sturdy jute wrap is ideal for claw sharpening, whilst the two ferret-shaped soft toys are covered in long hair plush & filled with Silver Vine (Japanese catnip) powder, to entice your cat to play & snuggle. Silver Vine (Actinidia polygama) – also known as cat powder – is made from the leaves of the non-toxic matatabi plant. This plant is part of the kiwi family & grows in the mountainous regions of Japan & China. It is used in foodstuffs, cosmetics & pharmaceutical products, & it is also well known that it can induce a state of euphoria in cats, in much the same way as catnip & baldrian. Cats typically experience a heightened sense of wellbeing when they come into contact with Silver Vine, as well as reduced inhibitions, leading to them licking, rolling on or rubbing their chins & cheeks against toys that have been filled with even a small amount of the substance. The effects last 5-30 minutes & can be used as a distraction at times of particular stress or unease.
