What should be paid attention to when cleaning and maintaining cat scratch mat

As one of the favorite scratching tools of cats, Cat Scratch Mat will inevitably be stained with stains, hair or cat's claw marks in daily use. In order to keep it clean and extend its service life, proper cleaning and maintenance are essential. Regular cleaning
The surface of Cat Scratch Mat is easy to accumulate cat hair and dander, so it needs to be cleaned regularly. It is recommended to clean it at least once a week, using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to gently remove the hair and dust on the surface. Be careful to avoid using too rough cleaning tools to avoid damaging the surface of the cat scratching board. Stain treatment
If the Cat Scratch Mat is accidentally stained with urine or other stains, it should be treated immediately. First, gently wipe off the excess stains with a paper towel or clean cloth, and then use a pet-specific detergent or mild soapy water to wash it. When washing, avoid using too much water to prevent the cat scratching board from being damp and deformed. After washing, wipe the water with a clean towel or paper towel, and then let the cat scratching board air dry naturally. Avoid excessive moisture
The surface material of the Cat Scratch Mat is generally not resistant to excessive moisture, so try to avoid using too much water during the cleaning process. If the cat scratching board is damp, it is not only easy to breed bacteria, but may also cause the cat scratching board to deform or damage. Therefore, be sure to control the amount of water used during cleaning and ensure that the cat scratching board can be quickly air-dried after cleaning. Regular replacement
Although the Cat Scratch Mat is carefully designed and manufactured, long-term use and scratching will still cause its surface to wear. In order to maintain the cat's scratching pleasure and the beauty of the cat scratching board, it is recommended to replace the Cat Scratch Mat regularly. Generally speaking, if the surface of the cat scratching board is severely worn or the cat is no longer interested in it, you can consider replacing a new cat scratching board. Storage and maintenance
When the Cat Scratch Mat is not in use, it should be stored in a dry, ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and humid environments. In addition, in order to ensure the service life and scratching effect of the Cat Scratch Mat, it is recommended to trim the cat's claws regularly to reduce the wear on the cat scratching board.
