{"product_id":"clawloop","title":"ClawLoop™ Cat Scratcher Toy With Ball","description":"\u003cp\u003eA corrugated cardboard scratcher built like a concertina: it folds flat into a ring, bends into an arch, or opens out into a curved lounger, and a bell ball runs in the groove that the fold leaves down the middle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvery order comes with at least two boards.\u003c\/strong\u003e Buy 1 Get 1 Free brings 2 boards and 2 bell balls, and Buy 2 Get 2 Free brings 4 of each. The boards connect magnetically end to end, so two make one longer shape, as in some of the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy cardboard, and why flat\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCats scratch in two directions and most homes only offer one. A vertical post covers the stretch-up-the-doorframe kind. This is the other one: the horizontal, dig-in-with-both-front-paws kind that otherwise ends up happening on a rug or the arm of a sofa. Corrugated card shreds a little under the claws, which is the point. That resistance is what a scratching surface is supposed to give.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and materials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e24 x 24 x 10 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e (9.4 x 9.4 x 3.9 in), \u003cstrong\u003e350 g\u003c\/strong\u003e.
