Put it where she already naps.
Set the basket in the spot she sleeps now, not in a spare corner. Drop in a T-shirt you’ve worn for the first few nights so it smells like home. Let her find it in her own time, and praise her when she scratches the rim.
For the cat who scratches where she sleeps
The Scratch Basket
A bed she’s allowed to scratch.
Outdoors, cats scratch tree bark. Indoors, that instinct lands on your sofa the minute she wakes up. This basket is coiled from soft cotton rope, ridged like bark, so her claws sink in and catch. It’s her bed and her scratching spot in one, and the sides squash under her like a pillow.
Rope that grips like bark
Ridged cotton her claws sink into
A spot that’s hers
Her bed, her scent, her basket
Easier on your sofa
The rope takes the morning stretch
A size for every cat
Kittens to 16.5 lb (7.5 kg)
Scratching rope helps her shed the old outer layer of her nails. It does not replace a nail trim.

How to use it
Place it on the floor or a wide, stable surface where she already naps. Shake out fur or vacuum it, and spot clean with a damp cloth. Check the rope ball and cord now and then, and take the cord off if it frays.
