Scouts Make Cat Scratching Post

How to video

[@robinsnest1919]

I have been trying to figure out HOW TO attach the round PVC tube I have to the base....and these girl scouts showed me how...with a 2 x 4 inside of it! THANK YOU SCOUTS

[@longtaleanimation6849]

This was silly but also cute, I remember I had to do an assignment like this almost like a jingle ad.

[@maritzacaminero4423]

So I'm looking online for a replacement scratching post for my cat tower. I type in a few words and this video pops up.... I just had to comment and say,,, these girls are amazing. saved me soooo much money... Now I'm thinking this is a 2012 video and these Ladies are all grown up now.. Ill bet they are even smarter now !!!!! thanks for sharing with all of us.. very creative, helpful and most of all I enjoyed the laughter. thanks again ladies.

[@cranberry6pointOh]

Thanks for the visual tips with sisal & the dimesion, too. It looks like you had some fun & made some shelter cats happy at the same time! Good Job!

[@bloodydbunny]

you can also add glue(glue you use for wood) to the outside of the post so the rope stays in place better and cats wont easily pull it from the post(specially if u got stronger cats like i have)

[@MsCouve]

I was trying to decide between wood or cylinder thingy lol and did not think to use both...thanks for the tip!!!!!

[@karenheater8499]

I loved this ! Don't change stay real and always be yourselves !!!

[@mshomefire]

Thanks for this fun info video just what I needed to repair my existing post

with screws -the new quote of the century

[@ACCCGStThomas]

Okay for kittens, but too short for full grown cats. Measure how high an adult cat can stretch; that's how tall post needs to be. I like how sisal rope, a natural material, was used to cover post. Sisal carpeting is also available. It teaches cats to scratch that material instead of rugs, etc. All cats can be taught to use scratching surfaces. Some prefer horizontal scratching surfaces. Scratching post can be laid on its side too. Thank you for helping animals!

[@AnthonynJill]

Cute way to explain, My husband is going to make a post for our kitty. Thank you!!!

[@christianadventure]

Great job, helped me out heaps.

[@egergaud]

Great job Ladies!

[@cpsu602]

you go girls!! well done thanks for the tips.

[@katrinaamos3385]

Good video - but it would be really helpfulto know how much sisal rope is needed for a 2 foot post

[@conniestreif3761]

Rather than using glue for the rope, I just use a spray bottle filled with water & spray the rope. The rope will shrink as it dries & adhere to the tube.

[@thechetjr]

Glue, you need glue. If you don't put glue on the post the whole wrap fails when the kitties cut the rope and the rope wrap falls off in a ropey looking jumble of unwrapped wrap. Thanks for a great video.

[@whiggygirl]

Chet Smith What glue would you recommend?

[@thechetjr]

A good contact cement would work.

[@nipponsoul7]

Thanks ! this helped me to build mine! :)

Thanks

[@WatchingPup]

you didn't include the cat in the video. =-(

[@sebastiancarrillo21]

How much rope do I need

[@Spoif]

Divide the height of the post (add a few cm to be safe) by the width of the sisal rope. That will give you the approximate number of turns required to fill the post. Pi (3.1415927) x (the post diameter + 1 piece of rope width) will give you the approximate rope required for one turn. Multiply the turns required by the amount of rope per turn for the approximate amount of rope required to fill the post. Remember that the wound rope is a spiral as opposed to series of concentric turns, so there is a little extra needed for each complete turn. Be a bit liberal with your measurements, it best to have a little extra than not enough. You will be probably be surprised at how much sisal rope is actually on a cat scratching post. If you go to a hardware store for the sisal rope you might end up paying a small fortune for it, so check out eBay for some good deals. Best wishes.

[@LoveGuruBlaire]

Scouts?

[@codyeakin1187]

Omg

[@funnygames7916]

let me come from behind

[@fm1224]

Sscary watching young ladies and most women use tools, the utility knife! nice job otherwise, could teach Martha Stewart a thing or 2. lol

[@itsjustrenee1320]

You obviously don't know much about women.

[@Mrchubakkaa]

lol

[@berlinerphonix551]

Was ist das ?

[@n3wt0n1988]

una bosta

[@jenniferstrausser3184]

You should not try going for the cutesy wootsy thing and just stick to narrating how you build it. Just a thought. You may get more views that last for more than 10 seconds

[@RADARTechie]

Not everything is a professional production. I'm guessing this wasn't meant to be seen as the definitive DIY cat scratching post video, but instead used for girl scouts, as in a fun video showing teamwork, projects, etc.

[@RunnRedd419]

Jennifer Strausser you're rude.This was just a fun video they made for scouts. I would hate to have you as a friend

[@catspaw3815]

I like it when you make fun of southerners.

[@speake8364]

Omg how annoying was this video.
