Some owners of wayward cats face the problem when their pets continue to ruin furniture with their claws even after purchasing a scratching post.
If you want to protect your favorite sofa or chair from damage, try using double-sided tape, which should be pasted over the most attractive areas for the cat.
Many cats will not like this decision of yours, which will cause them to stop their brutal attacks.
To avoid damage, take this characteristic of your cat into account when purchasing new furniture.
For example, if you know that your pet is crazy about uneven surfaces, choose products with soft and smooth upholstery.
If you are completely desperate, think - maybe it is better to give up this fight?
For example, you can leave one old chair that the cat likes to sharpen its claws on, and then the rest of the furniture will be safe.
But you definitely shouldn't resort to such a barbaric method as declawing. This is a cruel procedure that makes animals suffer from pain and threatens a whole bunch of health problems later on.
For reference
A scratching post is a wooden pole, board, or more complex surface covered with rough material that cat owners install for their pets to scratch and sharpen their claws.
