Description : My cat seems to think everything in the house is something that he should scratch. My couch looks horrible. I bough a scratching post for him to use, but he just ingores it. What can I do to get my cat to stop using everything but his scratching post to sharpen his nails?
Last Answer : Make the scratching post attractive to your cat by rubbing catnip over it. Place a toy that dangles on top - that should get his attention. Or place favorite treats at different levels. You ... discourage your cat from using the furniture as a scratching post. Keeping his nails trimmed helps too.
