The name

なでなで nadenade means petting.

なでなで nadenade is the soft, repetitive word for stroking someone. It is baby-talk in the best way, and it is precisely what your cat is doing to itself against this thing.

Every word we use, explained

Why it exists

A cat that wants its cheeks scratched will find a corner and handle it personally. Table legs, door frames, your shins.

This gives them a corner built for it: a small soft hedgehog that sticks into a wall or table corner and holds still while your cat does the rest. The spikes are soft rubber, so they work the cheeks and chin, the spots a cat leans into when it wants a fuss.

The spiky shell pops off. Underneath is a small cradle, so if your cat is the sort that likes catnip you can tuck a little in. The adhesive is non-marking and lifts away clean, which your walls will appreciate. Nothing to charge, nothing to switch on.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs itself

Stick it in a corner

Peel the non-marking pad and press it flush at cat height.

They find it

Cheeks and chin meet the soft spikes where they already rub.

They pet themselves

You did nothing. The cat is certain it was their idea.

Questions

The things people ask

What does nadenade mean?

なでなで nadenade is Japanese for petting or stroking. Your cat handles that part without you.

How does the Nadenade Arch attach?

It sticks into a wall or table corner with non-marking adhesive, at your cat's shoulder height. The adhesive lifts away clean when you want to move it, so it is fine for rented walls.

Are the spikes soft or hard?

Soft TPR rubber, made to be comfortable against a cat's face and cheeks.

What is inside the hedgehog?

The spiky groomer shell pops off to reveal a small cradle. Leave it as a face groomer, or tuck a little catnip inside if your cat is the type.

Will it collect loose fur?

It may catch a little, but it is really a face and cheek massager rather than a de-shedding brush. Think of it as a corner your cat can lean into.

How long until my cat uses it?

Some cats start immediately. Others take about a week to trust a new object. Mounting it where they already rub helps.
