The Origin Story
Built by a veteran. Inspired by a cat.
Blair Sleppy spent years watching his cats destroy furniture and suffer through stressful nail trims. As a veteran engineer, he knew there had to be a better way — one that worked with cats' natural behavior, not against it.
Using AI-assisted design and precision engineering, Blair developed the micro-knife technology that powers every SkiRatchPad®. Patent pending. Veteran owned. Built to last a lifetime.
I built this for my cats first. Then I realized every cat owner needed it.
