Our cats have always been very good about not scratching our furniture and instead scratch the things that we have gotten for them that they are supposed to scratch. I have made them two wooden cardboard cat scratcher holders. I made these by making a single wooden box and cutting it in half at an angle. This gave me a sloped support for the cardboard scratching piece. I did wood inlays over the knots in the wood and at the corners to strengthen them. The wood is red alder that I cut down a few years ago and the inlays are walnut. Both cats seem to enjoy the scratchers.

I love how this is slowly becoming a carpentry for cats channel!
thank you so very much for the invisible cat bit, Frank! as someone who lives with cats and gets to have things tossed on the floor randomly, it was *perfect*. your love and care for your cats is one of the best things ever.
Frank, thank you for sticking to the "bed goes up, bed goes down" bit, because I absolutely love it.
That kills me every single time. We need to make a master cut of this from all videos.
You absolutely managed to show some extremely specific cat traits with that paw animation Frank, absolute genius. Beautiful work as usual
That disk sander is quietly the MVP of a lot of these projects
Your cats get better furniture than I have. Good job.
I love how you put so much time, effort and thought into something that's "just" for cats. They must be really loved 🥰 Seeing them in action, scratching away, really made me smile. And I enjoyed the woodworking as well, as always!
I'm not sure which is more impressive, your wood working or your video editing.
Waffles thought she was in trouble. "What? I'm just laying here--not scratching anything at all. Those scratch marks; they're from Cinnamon."
Good to see another woodworker who also likes their pets. thks
I sometimes contemplate how many hours man has expended for the direct benefit of animals. I think your two critters enjoyed your work. Myself. I liked the cat heads on the corners. Wasn't quite sure how that would turn out but of course it was spot on.
So how many folks watched this without skipping ahead? This is my new favorite channel. Stop motion was the best . Thank you for making a video that is a piece of art all on its own .. That is my dream shop . Time to binge watch this channel.BTW your cats are awesome. Of course they love it, papa made it out of love
Here in Sweden the cats has fingers in the front and toes in the back!
We always call the 'fingers' on a cat's paw 'beans' or 'toe beans'.
Also, absoluitely love the stop motion you did with the paws, plus all of your cat projects of course!!
Toe beans is absolutely the correct term. 🐱
Loving this cat-build series, Frank. Looking forward to the next one!
the Cheshire cat making that jump was remarkably accurate
I've been watching your videos for at least a decade(?) and this is the first time i've thought "overkill" on producing a box but having watched the whole thing i loved it!
Love the stop animation!!! It feels like it’s been awhile since we got a longer one like that, but maybe I am forgetting. A thought for cutout/knot shapes - fish!!
Beautiful upscale. Now put some catnip inside the cardboard honeycomb..... I do this with the one I have for my cats. The reactions are priceless.
Another spellbinding production and no catastrophic accidents. :)
первое, что приходит на ум при просматривании этого ролика, парень -транжира и мот!!! но до чего же приятно смотреть за его работой! был бы знаком с дочерьми Главного, наверное тоже бы так смог!))) а может быть и лучше!!!)
A wonderful gift for your 4 legged family members. As usual, amazing workmanship!!
This is turning into a cat channel, and I am here for it!
Its turned into a router bit/saw blade/ maker mob sales channel
your videos are works of art....just as much as your projects are.
I just want to commend your editing. The translucent assembly animations, the videos on the projector screen the stop motion. Everything is absolutely lovely and I’m thankful that you put that much effort into your videos!
They turned out *"purrrfect"* Frank! Well done.
Tip! Put catnip in the paw cutout underneath the insert. It will attract the cats more. Though they seemed to like it already. 😺
I like it!
I love the wood working video and cat video mashup. My two favorites!
“Next up on Frank Makes: kitty litter box furniture!”
Your invisible shop cat even did the butt wiggle! I am charmed. 💖💖
The way I gasped when he cut it in half!
I absolutely love it when you bring out the old 8mm projector screen. It reminds me of the one that I inherited from my grandparents (same color/model). I donated or sold mine sometime in the early 2000's when I was living in Portland.
Shure looks like you are having a lot of fun! Life is nice!
Always a pleasure, never a chore
What an interesting project. At first, I thought this might be rather straightforward, but the details you added really brought these 'cat scratching boxes' to another level.
22:10 waffles was like "dude, stop filming me while I'm doing my catchy thing...come on man! " 😂😆🤣
Happy Father’s Day Frank!
Cats have toes. Great video as always Frank!
So now we know that Frank can’t park one of his cars under the carport. A veritable bone of contention. As long as there’s no cars in the front yard, Frank is still aces in my book.
Ha! I really wont to get that wood out of there.
I like the little running gags. "Bed goes up". And the stop motion. It's nice that you keep putting these in.
Edit: Oh, and the cats, how could I forget about the cats. Cats are great.
So it all makes sense, I can see master woodworker Frank Howarth slowly descending into "That crazy cat person"
By my definition of car person, he’s not there yet: number of adults plus 1 is under cat person limit.
hahaha. carrying the wood looked like a Monty Python movie clip. good job frank
I need to do a Benny Hill skit where I'm carrying a slab around with a bunch of people chasing me.
Was cool to see this video pop up, I made similar cat scratchers and foot stools for under your desk back in summer of 2020 when I couldn't get a job due to covid! Only main difference other than specific dimensions and the beautiful joints, etc, was I put carpet instead of cardboard for the cats to pick away at that carpet instead of our house's haha
That's good you can fill the one with the cat paw in the middle with Cat Nip.
Daddy, your Queens approve of this project especially built for them!!! Wonderful handiwork!
You could sprinkle it with a bit of dried catnip leafs, we had that in our catscratcher and the got loved it ^^
You classed those up a lot. Enjoyed the video, Frank!
Those cat scratchers are better than most of my furniture!!! 🙄
...Great video & project btw! 👍🙂
The details and perfection in the editing deserves so much credit. I love the effort you put into your videoes
That invisible cat, Frank ! 😁👍
Meow 😺
Those are some lucky cats
Nice work as usual Sir
The intricacy of the build and the video is pretty astounding. That's some serious effort 😃
Friday evening (UK time). Perfect way to end the week. Thanks Frank.
I love the cat paw wiggle movement at the end of the jointer before the jump. Nice detail!
and i love the animation in you videos : )))) the way that wooden paws are walking along the table : )))
Invisible cat was funny.
Nice one Frank.
Love the cat themes you bring into your work.
Oh and the cat paws walking stop-motion was an especially nice touch 😻
Cats have neither fingers nor toes, but beans
Love, love, love your precious kitties!! Another awesome video!! Thank you!!
The Whimsical Wonder that is Frank Howarth.
I was thinking it would have been just like a cat, if, after all that work, they completely ignored the boxes, and destroyed the furniture 😂
Nice project, and nice execution.
Next time you might want to research the shape of the palm of a cat. But you are in good company - most people get the shape wrong, and it still looks nice.
Lovely cats!
Looks like you passed the live cat test! Another awesome build!
I actually do offer a carpeted version of this that can be integrated into pretty much any of my tree designs! I had a client ask for it a couple years ago and of course I was like, "Why WOULDN'T I do this?" I just wish the dollar store cardboard inserts were the same dimensions as the pet store ones (which cost more, but that cost doesn't affect me).
Like the projector screen inset videos!
So much more pleasing than the cardboard frames!
I love it Frank. Such great content.
My Friday made!😀
The internet has declared that cats have neither fingers nor toes. They have beans.
Cute kittys!❤
Your precision woodworking is so satisfying and I like your cats
Wow, just wow, Frank, admiring your beautiful art work 👏
I like all your videos. I REALLY liked this one!
First a wall-mounted cat playground, then luxe scratching wedges. I can't wait to see what you come up with for litter boxes.
Faux paws 🤪 thanks for the video. 🇨🇦📐
Frank, you must be the only YT maker who spends such efforts making something so benign so beautiful. :D Great project!
This is so true. I was just thinking I could throw this together out of plywood in like an hour but Frank would never do that.
Love this. Been looking for ideas on making something similar for our cats. Also, it's my understanding that cats don't have fingers or toes. I believe they're called squish beans ;)
Frank, though they are already used to the new scratching boxes, you can also use them as a reward center by rubbing catnip into the pores of the cardboard; double duty.
How did the cats thank you? 'Where's my food?'
Thanks for another awesome project, I always enjoy your humor and the production quality of the videos is just amazing!
I’m a terrible cat dad… my cat is watching this with me and giving me a sassy face.
Great job 👏
I love your editing 👍
so cute cats you own! and it's so nice how you make their life more comfortable. love from my Bee the cat
BEYOND hilarious!!
Purfect!
They're called toe-beans. 😊
Frank, there is one problem with the angle of this scratcher, after a few months, the two cats will start peeing on it, if you use the short side as the base and put the long side against the wall, the cats will use it more like a tree, just put a screw into the top corners so they can't pull the pad out of the holder.
Thank you sir, you just gave me an idea for my fur ball scratch pad!
I'm in love with this channel :-D That invisible cat was the best!
If my cats get wind of this upgrade I'm in trouble! 😂 It has been deemed on the internet (source of all true knowledge) that cats have toebeans on all four paws. My vet, however, says they are digital pads.
"The digits of the paw" covers both fingers and toes.
Really beautiful work, Frank! And beautiful cats! 😃
I just subscribed!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Well, cats, just like dogs, actually have 2 arms & 2 legs, when you consider the rear pair have knees and ankles, and the front pair have elbows and wrists, so by that logic, they also have hands, and thus fingers.
Furthermore, some dexterous cats use claws to pick up individual pieces of food, but exclusively with their front paws....
Also: Lovely work Frank : )
While the anatomy of their front and back legs is similar to those of a biped, they definitely are four legged creatures and thus have four feet. So I'd say all their digits are toes.
Also, cats have 5 toes on their front legs and 4 toes on ther back legs. Usually.
Best Canale to sleep too.. 👍👍 😂🤣 plz make a story canale 👌👍😉
Pads, paws and toe beans. Fingers? Nope. Nice scratch box work!
The internet calls the cats toe pads "Toe Beans"
Toe beans! 😍
