About: Horizontal Scratching Post (Cat Wall Scratcher)

The Horizontal Scratching Post takes our standard Scratching Pole and lays it across the wall. Cat wall scratchers not only provide a fantastic area to claw and stretch, they also encourage exercise by having your kitties jump to make the journey up the wall. Save your couches and your sanity by giving your cats a suitable scratching post for them to sink their claws into!

These poles can be attached to either the front or back of the mounting plank. This enables you to create double scratching poles by mixing diagonal, vertical and horizontal poles with each other. The interweaving poles can create a thought-provoking scratching surface up the wall and the extra routes are ideal for homes with multiple cats.

Poles can be mounted by securing one plank into a wall stud and installing the other plank into drywall with the included drywall anchors.

With that said, it is still best practice to install both planks into a stud if you are able to. This allows for greater flexibility as you continue to add to your kitty playground since you will be able to utilize all of our items in the catalog.

Amazing!!

Best purchase so far! We’ve decided to get a double horizontal scratching post for our nearly 20 lb Maine coon and that was the best decision ever since he can comfortably rest on it as well!
Customer service is wonderful and super helpful! Thank you Elexis for all your guidance and help in making the decision.
Super easy installation and great instructions!

Thank you for your kind words and for choosing our Horizontal Scratching Post for your Maine coon! We are thrilled to hear that it has been the best purchase so far and that your furry friend is enjoying it. Our team is always here to assist you with any questions or concerns. We appreciate your support and hope your cat continues to love their new scratching post! -Elexis

Loved by my senior cat

Wonderful product. My old girl still climbs the vertical sisal pole like a champ, but I'm grateful to provide additional accessible routes for her to roam free and healthy as she ages. This is the first item I've put up from my Black Friday sale shopping spree, and I am so excited to keep expanding routes!

Thank you so much for the review Ash, your cat is so beautiful! We are glad that our products have created a new place for her to roam and rest. If you or your cute cat need anything in the future, please feel free to reach back out to us!

Stud spacing and wall construction

Most construction in the US is made up of drywall over wall studs, which are wooden or metal 2x4s that act as the frame of the wall and are what the drywall is attached to. Because these studs are very sturdy, we’ve designed the furniture to be installed into them. They’re typically spaced out at 16” from center to center, so that’s what we’ve designed the furniture to accommodate.
