Kittens & scratching...

[Randi]

What a joy it must be to see Yosha and Lucky play again.

Fister used to scratch my recliner - only on the side and back of it though; when I put a blanket over, he didn't find it interesting any more. Good luck!

You had me stumped for a minute there with the "3 kittens in the house" statement. I mean after all, this IS PT where everyone keeps finding and adding. Anyhow, so pleased the younger is getting the older ones off their duffs!

I used the double sided sticky tape with good results. I also rub catnip on the scratching posts to make it MORE enticing, and squirt the vinegar and water mix on the furniture to make it LESS enticing. I did all that for about 5 weeks each time I had a cat who didn't "get it."
Good luck!

Bunny, I just covered my recliner and couch with covers. At first I used blankets but now they look much better with the fitted corduroy covers on them.

You might want to try buying catnip spray and spraying the scratching posts with this to make them irresistable. Also feliway,comfort zone, spray is also supposed to help cats stop scratching furniture and other things. You might want to try this. Good luck.
