With a ton of cardboard boxes lying around, what should I do? Scratcher toys for the cats.
Today, I wanted to take care of something for my babies( cats) and so I decided make a bunch of cat scratchers. I had a lot of cardboard boxes lying around and so I decided to take it upon myself to recycle that cardboard and to also help my cats with their scratching needs. It also helps that I don't want my furniture scratched up; (let's not forget that important factor.) ^_^

So I went and gathered the supplies and got to work. Let the glue dry,did the clean up, and in the mean time clipped their nails so that they don't just destroy the things I made in one go. I like staying busy and doing all kinds of DIY projects no matter where I am. For me, if I don't stay busy I end up bored.
So it all came out well and now they have several items with which to go nuts scratching.

| Made a box out of a piece of cardboard in which to place the scratcher. |

| For decorative purposes, I wrapped it in gift wrapping paper. So sparkly! |

| There you have it... my finished cat scratcher. :) |
It has been a rainy day and it is chilly out. I stayed in and took care of some early spring cleaning, but I really have to get to more of it soon. More of that in a different blog. For now I want to remind readers that mold and dust are more present during the cold winter months when moisture and lack of air circulation takes place in the home. So please crack open some windows and remember to have control of dust by cleaning.
