Interactive Cat Feather Wand Teaser with Non-toxic for Indoor Cats Mental Stimulation Exercise and Enrichment

Frequently Asked Questions

• The title says 'feather wand teaser' but the description is about a wooden cat climbing pole — what is this product?

  The description clearly describes a 'Climbing Poll For Cats' made of wood — a scratching post or cat tree. Not a feather wand toy. The title is a catalog error. This product is a standing wooden scratching/climbing structure for cats.

• What are the height and base dimensions of the climbing pole?

  The description does not specify dimensions. Wooden cat climbing poles typically range from 40cm (small) to over 100cm (tall). The base footprint matters for stability — a wider base prevents tipping when a cat climbs rapidly. Check product images for dimensions.

• Is the wood treated or natural — could there be toxic finishes?

  Pet furniture made of wood should use non-toxic finishes only. Untreated natural wood is safest. Lacquers, stains, and paints contain VOCs that cats (who groom their paws after contact) can ingest. Verify that any finish is labeled pet-safe or non-toxic before use.

• Will this pole scratch a cat's claws sufficiently or do cats prefer sisal over wood?

  Natural wood provides a satisfying scratch texture for many cats. However, cats that have been conditioned to sisal or cardboard scratching surfaces may ignore a plain wood pole initially. Add a small amount of catnip to the surface to attract the cat's interest.

• Is this suitable for outdoor use or only indoor?

  Unfinished or lightly finished wood will absorb moisture and warp or develop mold/rot with repeated outdoor exposure. Unless specifically rated for outdoor use with weatherproof finish and a non-water-absorbent base, keep this indoors.

• Can a cat fully climb and sit at the top or is it a scratch post only?

  A 'climbing pole' suggests it has perching surfaces or levels, not just a vertical scratch surface. Whether the cat can sit at the top depends on whether a perch platform is included at the apex. Check product images to determine if this is a simple post or a multi-level structure.
