    Cats scratch the sofa because they grind their claws, just like people need to brush their teeth.

    It likes to use the sofa to grind its paws, just because the sofa grinds comfortably.

    It is recommended that you find something for it that is more comfortable than scratching the couch, such as a cat scratching board.

    Of course, some cats are energetic and will also go to grab the sofa, so it is recommended to play with it more to release their energy.

    Cat's paws have left a smell on your home's leather goods, computer chairs, sofas. When the cat smells it, it habitually scratches there. You get some orange peel, wind oil essence or something to rub in those places, rub more, so that the smell left by the cat's paw is eliminated.

    Then grab the cat's paw and scratch it on the cat's scratching board a few times, telling it that it should scratch there and let its paw leave a smell there.

    Before the ottoman is completely transformed, you still have to rub orange peel and wind oil essence on the computer chair and sofa. The cat scratch board should be placed in a conspicuous place, not in a computer chair or sofa. Be patient :)

    If it doesn't scratch the cat scratch version, according to the size of your sofa and armrests, and computer chairs, buy some small mattresses for a few yuan, preferably bamboo covers, wrap these places with small mattresses, and fix them.

    The cat's claws can only scratch the mat if they are not in the leather part, which plays a good protective role and also gives the cat its claws. If it breaks, buy another one. Journey.

    1. Usually, cats scratch the sofa because they want to grind their claws, which is the action of the cat to stretch its body and hands and feet, or because the toenails are too long. Since it is a cat's instinct to grind its claws, it is difficult to stop, but it is possible to provide cats with a specific place to grind their claws to avoid damage to furniture. At the same time, try to trim the cat's nails regularly to avoid too long toenails;

    2. There are many claw grinding posts and claw grinding plates on the market that are specially designed for cats. There are many styles of grinding jaw posts and grinding jaw plates, such as flat and vertical. When choosing, we should first consider the cat's claw grinding behavior habits, and make targeted purchases according to the cat's claw grinding habits;

    3. At the same time, when choosing a claw grinding column or a claw grinding plate, it is necessary to make a standard according to the size of the cat's body, and a larger column should be selected for larger cats. In terms of materials, cats generally like loose fabrics, because the fabric that is too densely woven is easy to hook the cat's claws. Therefore, the number of times to replace the dust surface of the cloth fiber hole should not be too frequent, so as not to make the cat lose interest;

    4. In addition, toys, mint-flavored sprays or lemon flavors can be added to arouse the cat's interest in grinding claw posts or plates. Most cats like to grind their claws when they wake up, so it is best to set the claws near the place where the cat sleeps.
