Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Cat Scratcher Laptop Lets Your Favorite Feline Surf the Web

— August 16, 2015 — Pop Culture
Anyone who has spent roughly five minutes on the Internet knows that cats basically dominate the world wide web, so it only makes sense to make a cat scratcher that lets your pet do a little surfing of its own.

UK-based company SUCK UK, known for making a wide range of quirky and imaginative home products, has developed the 'Cat Scratch Laptop' as an adorable solution for encouraging your cat to leave the furniture upholstery alone. The cardboard cat scratcher features its very own scratch pad keyboard, a fluffy toy mouse for your pet to bat around, and even its own little screen to insert new images depending on what sort of mischief you think your tech savvy cat will be getting into on any given day.
Trend Themes
1. Pet-friendly Technology - SUCK UK's Cat Scratch Laptop represents a trend for developing technology with pets' entertainment in mind.
2. Eco-friendly Cardboard Products - The use of recyclable cardboard in SUCK UK's cat scratcher suggests a trend towards sustainable and biodegradable materials for consumer products.
3. Interactive Pet Toys - The inclusion of a toy mouse and an interactive scratch pad keyboard in SUCK UK's product highlights the demand for engaging and entertaining toys for pets.
Industry Implications
1. Pet Accessories - The pet accessories industry can benefit from the trend of developing technology with pets' entertainment in mind, such as interactive toys and smart feeding systems.
2. Cardboard Packaging - The increased demand for sustainable and biodegradable materials, combined with the versatility and low cost of cardboard, makes cardboard packaging an industry ripe for disruptive innovation.
3. Interactive Toy Manufacturing - The trend towards interactive and entertaining toys for pets creates an opportunity for manufacturers to incorporate technology into pet toys, such as motion sensors, app connectivity, or AI-powered playmates.
