Choose reasons why a cat scratches ?
Preferably put your scratching post near sleeping areas (as cats usually scratch when waking up), by entrances (where stress-related scratching is often displayed) or near inappropriate scratching places. The scratching post should be easily accessible and visible as cats scratch to communicate.
Scratching behaviour is an important communication tool in cats. Even cats with outdoor access need to scratch somewhere in their home!

The post needs to be tall enough to encourage full stretching and sturdy enough for cats to lean into without falling over.
In a multi-cat home, at least one scratching post per cat should be available, ideally spread throughout the home, so that each cat can access a scratching post without having to share, particularly if there is tension between cats.
BEHIND FURNITURE OR UNDER A TABLE
