KJ The Kitty Correspondent offers practical advice to help cat owners keep their furniture scratch-free while ensuring their feline friends are happy.KJ suggests placing new scratching options, such as tall sisal posts and flat cardboard scratchers, right next to new furniture to divert cats from scratching couches. Using catnip or silvervine can make these alternatives more appealing.To protect furniture, KJ recommends covering high-risk areas like corners and armrests with throw blankets for the first few weeks. This not only protects the furniture but also adds a decorative touch. Keeping treats nearby allows owners to reward cats instantly for using scratchers instead of furniture, reinforcing positive behavior.KJ advises against scolding cats during the initial days, suggesting calm redirection and praise for good choices instead. Regularly refreshing scratching spots by replacing pads, rotating toys, and changing locations can keep them attractive to cats. Interactive play, such as using wand toys or laser pointers, can help reduce boredom-induced scratching by providing mental and physical stimulation.By following these strategies, cat owners can create a harmonious environment where both pets and furniture coexist peacefully.For more tips, KJ The Kitty Correspondent invites cat enthusiasts to join the SuPURR Cat Parent Society.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
