Follow on Google News | Woman Invents Amazing Product to Help All Animals Get That ItchSixty-six year old entrepreneur has an "a-ha" moment when it comes to her own pets. She put up an old currycomb for her own pets to scratch on and knew she had a winner after a fight nearly broke out as her animals jockeyed for their spot in line.
At an age when most people would be getting ready to snuggle up with a series of great novels and get comfortable with their retirement plans, a Pennsylvania woman is just itching to jump into business. Sixty- Cynthia is a lifelong animal lover. She came up with the idea for her clever invention a few years ago when she noticed the doors on her barn were being worn away by her own animals rubbing against them. She wanted to come up with something they could use to scratch underneath their chins. Then, when she found an exposed nail, it was enough to convince her something needed to be done before her animals ended up being seriously hurt. She met with a relative who once worked with a toy designer, and the rest is history. These high quality pads -- which are designed to be used in stables, barns, kennels, zoos and homes – are uniquely designed to be interlocking. They can be used separately, or they fit together to create surfaces in any size or shape. Plus, they easily bend to fit around corners. Cynthia uses three pads for her horse, Sundance, and her donkey, Teddy. Along with donkeys and horses, Cynthia has found that cats, cows, lynx, pigs, deer, dogs, goats, rabbits, sheep, people, an octopus – yes, even an octopus – love her invention. Videos on her website http://www.scratchnall.com show different animals enjoying their turns. For more information about Scratch n All™ pads, including how to order, check out Cynthia’s website, or you can call 1 (888) 9-SCRATCH. The pads are also available at a few select retailers in the Greater Dillsburg (York County, Pennsylvania) There's more to Cynthia's story than a new product. She also saves lives. She donates her time and talents to help various animal transport groups, and even went to Mississippi to help in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Her goal is to grow her business enough to donate to reputable spay/neuter organizations that help end animal suffering and pet over-population.
