ESSupervision




Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.
Mommy refurbished another ESS for us!  The scratchy part had been ripped to shreds from our Deadly Talons, and maybe partially digested from a few incredibly gross artistically placed yakkings.

Did you know that The ESS can be washed?  Mommy cleaned ours with some laundry detergent and a scrub brush, and left it out in the sun to dry...as good as new!

Or almost. 
First this one needed a new surface to sharpen our scimitars. 

Hot glue, sisal rope, and thumbs are critical to do the job right...

...and close attention to Quality Control.

Hurry up Mommy, I need to take this ESS out for a Test Drive Scratch!

So Kitties, if your ESS is looking a little...um...over-zealously-loved, tell your Peep to get the lead out and spruce it up--ours cost under ten bucks and only an hour to rehabilitate.
We are so totally worth it, right?


Happy Friday!

  1. Yes, we are showing this to Äiti. This looks Very Good Indeed. However Mirsku is not so sure and wishes to see the ESS in action under May Ling, just to convince himself it's a good investment of 10 green papers.....

  5. Our ESS got thrown in the trash because our mommy is so not resourceful like your mommy! Plus, our mommy would have no more fingerprints if she used one of those hot glue guns thingies.

  7. Great idea, far more economical than buying a new one frequently! Of course, that would our biped would need to get a glue gun too! :-D

  8. Yes, Sweet Pea...you kitties are totally worth it! We used sisal rope around a cardboard carpet tube, and made a really tall scratch post, 'cause Chuck likes to reach up way high.

  12. We gotta tell you....we've had our ESS for over 5 years and it looks brand new still. That's because we hardly use it. Maybe we should send it to you guys.
