Pet Product Review - No Scratch spray by Pet Organics

 

                  Petorganics_thumb

 

I purchased this product out of sheer desperation! My cats had gone to work on our new sofa and I vowed that I would not let them destroy one more thing in my house! It claims to be safe, non-staining and contains herbal essentials (garlic oil & clove oil), that discourage cats from scratching. The instructions say to apply it once a day for a few days and then as needed.


I first applied it to the areas of the sofa that the cats seemed to be focusing on. I applied it every day for 4 days. The first week the cats started clawing the couch just outside the perimeter of the sprayed area so I sprayed some more! It seemed to work for a couple of days at a time but then the cats would be right back at it, clawing the couch in the treated areas (I could even swear the darling little devils were laughing at me as they clawed with glee while staring at my bewildered expression). After reapplication they would back off for another day, maybe two.


Bottom line: I would say that it works if you are diligent in your reapplications. Perhaps my cats are a little more headstrong than yours and will cringe at the scent. To the human nose it smells very pleasant and is true to its claim to be non-staining. Personally, I may try applying fresh garlic directly to the couch, no humans will want to sit there but, hey, it will be preserved for future generations.


You can purchase Pet Organics No Scratch sprays at most retail stores who also carry pet supplies or you can buy a 16 oz bottle for $11.39 online at PetSmart

 I can't beleive it I was taking a nap today, having the most wonderful dream and all of a sudden I was woken up by someone giving me kisses. When I opened my eyes I was totally shocked to find it was my sister Shilo (who just happens to be a cat and my mortal enemy!) and here she was kissing me. Most of the time she wants to eat me. Mommy says she doesn't, but I see whats in those big green eyes of hers. She looks at me like I'm the daily special. Well I laid there in silence to see what was coming next, and yuk more kisses. She must be having a Kitty melt down nothing else explains it. If I had to choose,  I think I perfer her to want me for lunch instead of having to endure those sloppy kisses.

EDIT: Ok, so I posted and then realized Barney's hat was backwards - I am hoping that is why he is sad. I will be adding the pics to the post shortly.

So today I took the pictures for Barney's Christmas card. He is not a happy elf - but he is a cute elf. The pictures are below.






The Winner:



I may try the reindeer just to see how that works out.

Ok, here are the pictures with the hat on correctly - I think "The Sad Bitey Elf" is more appropriate.






The new winner?

Cats can be fussy when it comes to their litter tray. However, the reasons for it can range from serious to not so serious reasons.

1. Urinary Problem: urinary tract infection, bladder stones, urine crystals
2. Dirty Litter Tray: litter trays should be cleaned daily and fecal matter removed as soon as possible
3. Use of disinfectants: potent disinfectants such as bleach can discourage cats from using the tray. Detergents and warm water are sufficient.
4. Litter type: avoid scented litter
5. Toilet Position: Keep the litter tray in a quiet area away from thoroughfare, water bowls, food bowls, or sleeping areas.
