Redirect your cat's scratching behavior by providing alternative scratching posts or pads placed strategically around your home.
Utilize deterrents like double-sided tape, aluminum foil, or citrus scents on furniture to discourage scratching.
Regularly trim your cat's nails to reduce the damage caused by scratching and make it less appealing for them.
Regard using pheromone products such as sprays or diffusers to create a calming environment and minimize scratching.
Reward your cat with treats or praise when they use the appropriate scratching surfaces, reinforcing desired behavior.
Cover vulnerable furniture with blankets or slipcovers to protect them while you work on redirecting your cat's scratching habits.
If scratching persists despite your efforts, consult your veterinarian to rule out any underlying medical issues and investigate further solutions.
