Offer your cat a better alternative. Make your cat a scratching pole covered with remnants of your new carpet. If you don't have any remants any kind can be picked up at a carpet dealer for next to nothing for a remnant. Cats will always go to a vertical surface to scratch if other things are equal. With a vertical scratching pole they can arch their back and get a "better workout".

∙ 12y agoOne of the ways to stop your dog (or cat) scratching the furniture is to buy some spray that has a special scent that your pet will NOT like. This means it will NOT go near that object again. I have a dog and he chewed at the carpet on the stairs, i bought this product and he did not go near it again! It really did work! I really do recommend buying some.
N.B A good place to buy some is Pets at Home and other good shops.

∙ 10y agoThis is a sign that you are possibly doing things wrong.
If you are playing too rough with your cat, perhaps making them feel threatened... your cat might be less gentle than either of you would like.
If you are not playing enough with your cat, the right way, the cat has their energy built up (like over-charging a battery) and they will over-react.
You should not give a cat your hand as a toy, for instance. Play with them using wand toys which keep hands out of danger.
Once the cat is worn out from playing, that is an excellent time for petting!

How do you keep a cat from scratching on doors at night?
Is he trying to get into the room or does he just like to scratch? If he's trying to get in, let him in. If you don't want him in the room, ignore the scratching and he will eventually see that it's not working and stop. This works short term and long term, but you need to be consistent. If he just likes to scratch, spray him with some water and he will learn to stop
Does cinnamon stop cats from scratching?
Cinnamon can stop cats from scratching it really depends on how determined the cat is to scratch. Another great thing to make cats stop scratching is mixing some lemon with water and squirting at them when they do but do not squirt their eyes. You can also try putting orange peels where they scratch. That remedy is great at Christmas time if your cat starts to chew the Christmas tree hang the peels from the bottom of the tree. You can try patches of material if your cat is scratching furniture like the arms of a chair. I hope this helps XD
