Thankful Thursday Blog Hop:  Scratcher Replacement Day

thankful thursday blog hop brian 03312022

Howdy friends, thanks for stopping by for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.  I am always thankful to each of you for joining us!  Each and every Thursday we share the things for which we are most thankful and we always enjoy reading all of the things you are thankful for too. If you are new to our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop, thanks for hopping in, we really do get excited when new blogger pals join us!

One of the things we have here that we’re all really fond of is our  cardboard scratchers.  You’ve seen the photos, they are literally everywhere.  Well, at the moment we don’t have any scratchers in the kitchen.  I wonder why not?  Anyways, we have round ones, rectangle ones, oval ones, wide ones and thin ones.  Each of us will use them sometime throughout the day.

Today, being the end of the month, is our Scratcher Replacement Day.  The Dad will do an inspection and replace those that are torn up to the point that they are a cardboard mess.  MOL, it looks like that is gonna be most of them this month.  We’ve been pretty busy tearing them up.  Thanks Dad, we appreciate the new ones!

Okay, that’s it for me, what are you thankful for today? Tell us in the comments and then join us for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!

Brian, it’s a funny thing: Sweetie will not use a scratcher!
Not a vertical one, not a horizontal one.
She will only use the throw rug.
Da Boyz have scratched up many scratchers, like you!

Your dad is most efficient, having a specific day each month to do this chore. Hope he’s feeling better and fully recovered, and enjoy those new scratchers!

Wow, your Dad is super organized to have a regular end-of-month scratcher replacement plan. A new scratcher is always satisfying.

Aside from the spelling erros on my previous comment, sorry about that, I am always happy to be here. Yes, the scratching posts, pads, need replacing. Some cats get extra excited to play with them while enjoying them so….it is about time to change ours around here too. Thanks for the reminder. Love your sweet photo and always enjoy visiting you. Enjoy the weekend. The month was brand new and now it is going to be gone away. Take care all.

Memories of Eric and Flynn

That is nice to be getting new scratchers. The boys only used upright ones on their cat trees. They weren’t interested in horizontal ones apart from Flynn using the carpet sometimes.

Oh boy…….are you dreaming of new scratchers now Brian? I won’t use them but I do use the covering on my cat tree as a scratcher and when I’m outside I LOVE using the trees! Thanks for being our host for the Thankful Hop every week.

Hugs, Teddy

You gave mine Mommy an idea, thank you. I have 2 scratchers and then a scratcher-mat … but now she keeps picking up itty-bitty bits of cardboardy scratcher stuff from EVERYWHERE so I told her about your replacement plan and she said,
OK, that’s a good idea …
thank you.

How nice to have your scratchers replaced. Bert used to go wild on them and they only lasted a few months but now that both kitties are older, they don’t use them as much. Mom trims their nails, and they also grow slower. Enjoy the fresh scratching opportunities!

Great that y’all use the scratchers! Around here, only Jack uses it, Teddy likes the furniture, and Sophie likes the rugs.
