Many cats often climb on curtains, which makes their owners very angry.

And you can understand pet owners: they don’t like that their furry friend ruins expensive curtains and don’t want to get rid of this habit.

However, any person can easily make their pet stop paying attention to a product that is not intended for “cat climbing.”

So, what measures should a cat owner take?

Buy toys and use different designs

The habit of a furry four-legged friend to climb on curtains is often explained by the fact that the pet is simply bored, and has nowhere else to direct the accumulated energy.

In this case, you need to buy the cat more toys. In addition, you should install shelves on the walls that the animal can climb on. You can also hang a rope.

Perhaps after this your pet will stop paying attention to the curtains.

Use repellents

The apartment is full of toys and various cat “attractions”, but the furry one still can’t get distracted from the curtains?

Then it is worth buying some safe repeller. For example, one that works on compressed air.

This device will not cause any harm to the cat, but will protect the curtains.

Use orange juice

Don't want to buy a special device? Then use a spray bottle.

Fill a container with orange or lemon juice. Lightly sprinkle the curtains with drops of the acidic liquid.

The result of the procedure will be the appearance of an unpleasant smell for the cat. The pet will not even come near the curtains.
