Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance will extend the life of your cat tree and ensure a hygienic environment for your pets.

• Spot Cleaning: For minor spills or dirt, use a damp cloth with mild soap to spot clean plush surfaces. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Vacuuming: Regularly vacuum the plush surfaces to remove cat hair and dust.
• Sisal Rope: Inspect sisal-wrapped posts for wear and tear. While durable, sisal may fray over time with heavy use.
• Structural Check: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
• Toy Replacement: If hanging toys become detached or damaged, they can often be reattached or replaced.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Yaheetech Cat Scratching Post, consider the following common solutions:

• Wobbling: Ensure all screws are tightened. Verify that the base is on a flat, stable surface. Re-check the anti-tipping kit attachment to the wall.
• Loose Parts: Re-tighten any loose bolts or screws. If a part is broken, contact customer support for potential replacement.
• Cats Not Using It: Sometimes cats need time to adjust. Try placing catnip on the tree, or their favorite toys. Ensure the tree is in a location your cat feels safe and comfortable.

For persistent issues or parts replacement, please contact Yaheetech customer support.
