Those people who have become owners of furry and meowing creatures readily admit that they are often confused by the behavior of their pet.
Among the strangest feline traits, cat owners cite the animals' habit of scratching furniture when there is a scratching post specially designed for this purpose nearby.
We tried to figure out what drives the pet at this moment.
So, it is quite possible that the scratching post was purchased after the cat had already tried its claws on the furniture and left its pheromones there.
It is these substances that “trigger” this behavior time and time again.
Another possibility is that the scratching posts, although attractive to you, are simply not suitable for your pet or are not positioned correctly.
By the way, sometimes cat owners notice that the cat begins to damage not only furniture, but also rather unusual things that are not suitable for sharpening claws, for example, windows, cabinets, plastic containers, monitors, etc.
In this case, the reason is that your pet has nowhere to throw out the accumulated energy. Make sure you are not playing with your pet too little?
Finally, if you immediately drop everything you are doing and run to save a valuable item from the tenacious paws of a cat, the animal can take advantage of this and release its claws every time in order to attract the attention it so lacks.
