Jumping on your bookcase is only natural: cats are explorers and instinctively want to climb, scratch, and jump on pretty much everything, furniture included. In fact, they are built for climbing. They have strong, muscular legs that provide the power for them to jump up high.

Why are bookshelves dangerous if they are not secured correctly? What is anchoring, and how can it help you? Keep reading or these answers, and so much more.

How can you cat-proof your bookshelf?
Despite cats’ needs to climb bookcases being instinctive, it is frustrating and annoying. Fragile objects easily get knocked off and smash, shelves can flip, or the entire bookcase can come crashing down. Not to mention the claw marks that get etched into your bookshelf’s surface.
