Scratch n All® pad from Animent – Grooming Pad For Animals

The Scratch n All® pad from Animent, is a high-quality, rubber-based grooming pad specifically designed to allow unlimited applications in homes, kennels, stables, barns and even zoos. The pad’s raised nub design is based on curry brushes familiar to all animal owners.

The unique four-sided, curved, interlocking design lets you create a grooming surface as large or small as needed.  The pads can be mounted individually or in groups flat on walls or floors.  A special notched design allows pads to be folded on a 90 degree angle for installation on corners.

The Scratch n All® with Add a Pad can also help prevent injury to pets and livestock and damage to structures.

Because scratching and grooming is a self-enriching activity enjoyed by all animals, they will rub on any convenient surface or object. Door jambs, furniture and posts soon show wear and may even break or splinter; creating rough edges and sharp shards that could puncture the skin or cause other serious injuries.

The Scratch n All® pad can be purchased online or at a number of pet supply retail stores.

Scratch n All comes in 9 colors

Safe Animal Grooming Products

ScratchnAll installed on barn doorThere are many kinds of animal grooming supplies available. One of the most common needs for animals is the need to scratch. Farm animals frequently scratch themselves by rubbing on barn doors, trees, and stalls. This can be dangerous to them because they can get slivers from the wood.

A safe product is available now from Scratchnall. It is a high-quality, rubber-based grooming pad specifically designed to allow unlimited applications in homes, kennels, stables, barns and even zoos. The pad’s raised nub design is based on curry brushes familiar to all animal owners. The unique four-sided, curved, interlocking design lets you create a grooming surface as large or small as needed. The pads can be mounted individually or in groups flat on walls or floors and a special notched design even allows them to fold on a 90 degree angle for installation on corners such as door jams. Or, mount one or more Scratch n All® pads over a railing, window sill, or the lower part of a dutch door and you have created the perfect surface for your animal to scratch under its chin.

The pad can be attached to many different places, right where the animal will use it. These pads can also be used indoors, attached to a door jam for dogs and cats to use. Humans have been known to attach the pad high up the wall to use for scratching their own backs.

All kinds of animals are able to use this product:
Cats,  Cougar,  Cows, Deer, Dogs, Donkeys, Goats, Horses, Lynx, Octopus, Pigs, Rabbits, Sheep
