The Trixie Spare Post is a high‑quality replacement component designed to extend the life of your cat’s favorite scratching structures. Crafted from natural sisal, it offers the same durability and texture that cats love, while its precise dimensions ensure seamless integration with existing Trixie scratching posts.

Key Specifications

• Diameter: 11 cm (standard) or 12 cm (alternative size)
• Length: 60 cm – the ideal height for most indoor cat trees and free‑standing scratching posts
• Material: Premium natural sisal, chosen for its resilience against claws and its pleasant scent that encourages regular use
• Thread Type: M10 threaded insert – compatible with a wide range of Trixie mounting brackets and accessories
• Finish: Unbleached natural color, preserving the authentic look of the original post

Design Features

The spare post incorporates a robust M10 threaded core, allowing it to be securely fastened into any Trixie mounting system. The thread is engineered to withstand repeated insertion and removal, ensuring that the post remains stable during vigorous scratching sessions.

Its smooth outer surface is free from sharp edges or burrs, providing a safe experience for both cats and owners. The natural sisal fibers are tightly woven, preventing fraying and maintaining a clean appearance over time.

Installation Guide

1. Remove the damaged post: Unscrew the existing post from its mounting bracket using a standard screwdriver or Allen key. Gently pull the post out, taking care not to damage surrounding components.
2. Align the new post: Insert the M10 threaded core of the spare post into the corresponding slot on the mounting bracket. Ensure that the thread engages fully and is straight to avoid wobbling.
3. Tighten securely: Use a screwdriver or Allen key to tighten the post until it feels firm but not over‑tightened, which could strip the threads.
4. Check stability: Gently shake the post to confirm that it is firmly attached. If any movement is detected, re‑tighten the screws.

Benefits for Your Cat

• Reduces Furniture Damage: By offering an attractive alternative, the post diverts scratching from sofas, curtains, and other household items.
• Encourages Exercise: The vertical orientation promotes climbing and stretching, contributing to overall feline health.

Maintenance Tips

To keep the sisal in optimal condition, spot‑clean with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid harsh detergents that can degrade the fibers. Periodically inspect the threaded core for wear; if threads become loose, replace the spare post to maintain safety.
