As far back as July 2007 in the U.S. District Court of Seattle, there have been a series of class-action suits filed by plaintiffs who were having disc scratching problems w

Of course, a c

For a cat, scratching is a natural, necessary act. Besides keeping her claws in top shape, the stretching involved in a good scratch keeps her upper body strong and loose. Also, every time a cat scratches a surface, scent glands between her toes leave her signature smell for others to find. In this way, she marks her territory, even if that happens to be in your living room.Just because a cat must scratch doesn't mean she must destroy your furniture. Redirecting a cat's scratching to an appropriate object simply requires patience, flexibiity and time. To keep your cat from grooming her claws on your couch, you must give her some furniture of her own.Scratching posts come in a wide variety of sizes and textures. If your cat doesn't use the scratching post you have purchased, observe what sh

Cats are known for scratching and clawing. This is a natural behavior that you can control with a little training. Fist you need to know the reasons behind the clawing. Cats claw mainly to mark their territory and to exercise and stretch. You will not be able to completely stop your cat from clawing and scratching things, but you can control what the cat scratches.Step one is to give your cat an alternative to clawing your furniture. Scratching posts and toys will give the cat an expectable outlet for their natural behavior. A scratching post can be inexpensively built out of a couple pieces of wood nailed together and then covered with carpet. The trick is to train the cat as soon as you get them before they start on the furniture.Scratching posts are perfectly designed to fulfill the cats scratching needs, they are usually covered with carpet and cats love them. Place the scratching post near where the cat eats or where he likes to sleep because the cat will want to establish these a
A cat scratching post is absolutely necessary if you own a cat. It is what stands between destruction of your possession and your cat. Cats have this natural instinct to scratch and very often they like kneading their paws on some surfaces.Many cat owners do not realise that they need to provide their pets with a scratching post so the cats can satisfy their scratching needs and to sharpen their claws. You cannot change the scratching instinct of your cat therefore it is best to provide an alternative scratching surface for your pet to scratch on. A scratching post must be an essential part of any cat care program for your feline.Generally a cat scratching post is made up of a base, a post structure all exposed surfaces covered with a layer of woven material such as carpet for the scratching surfaces. A cat-scratching post is not always vertical; it can be horizontal on the floor. The base of the post should be big enough so the cat can stand on it and scratch and the structure will no

Mysterious stone sculptures have been found outside a number of properties in Yorkshire, leaving residents puzzled as no one knows why or where they have come from. Each sculpture features the same carved symbol and come with a riddle attached.
So far, 12 of the stone heads have appeared in Goathland and Kilburn, North Yorkshire, four in Arthington, near Leeds, West Yorkshire and three in Braithwell, near Rotherham, South Yorkshire.
Each head looks different, but all of the sculptures feature the same carving - which appears to spell out the word “paradox” - and a note with this riddle written on it, “Twinkle twinkle like a star does love blaze less from afar?”
Owners of a post office in Braithwell found three of the heads outside their business on the morning of August 23rd. After checking their CCTV footage, they discovered a man they did not know dropping off the stones in a small car at around 4am.

Remember back when the 360 launched? Before the big issue of the Xbox 360’s reliability was in question, the big deal was with the issue of the Xbox 360 scratching your CDs. This was one of the many accusations going around regarding the 360 post-launch, and in Holland, it’s apparently still an issue.
Dutch TV show “Kassa” recently began an investigation into the issue over in Holland. This investigation spawned the ECC (European Commission for Consumers) to issue a notice to Microsoft that demands an explanation from the computer giant regarding why some users are having their discs severely scratched by the home console.
On a personal level, I have never had this problem, and I know for a fact that it is in the Xbox 360 Warranty that if you turn the console from horizontal to vertical while in use, you can experience damage to your discs similar to this. Oh, the act of turning your console from vertical to horizontal also voids the warranty. For the record.

Cats are naturally driven to periodically hook their front claws into suitable surfaces and pull backwards, in order to clean the claws and remove the worn outer sheath as well as exercise and stretch their muscles. This scratching behavior seems enjoyable to the cat, and even declawed cats will go through elaborate scratching routines with every evidence of great satisfaction, despite the total lack of results.
Indoor cats benefit from being provided with a scratching post so that they are less likely to use carpet or furniture which they can easily ruin.
Commercial scratching posts typically are covered in carpeting or upholstery, but some authorities advise against this practice, as not making it clear to the cat which surfaces are permissible and which are not; they suggest using a plain wooden surface, or reversing the carpeting on the posts so that the rougher texture of the carpet backing is a more attractive alternative to the cat than the floor covering. Some indoor cats, how
