Yes, it is incorrect to say this, as the itch is the annoying impulse in the nerve that makes you want to scratch, and not the other way round. "Itch" is not a verb, and cannot be used as one, nor is a "scratch", although, sometimes, in colloquial talking, it can be used as one.

When you scratch a mosquito bite does it release poison into the bloodstream?

No, it does not. The mosquito doesn't inject a toxin. Instead, they simply try to injest your blood as a nutrient. The problems come in when the transfer goes both ways. The bump is your body reacting, not to a toxin, but to something it feels shouldn't be there (antigens). Scratching a mosquito bite doesn't release toxins into your bloodstream, but it does aggravate an already irritated area and, if you open a wound there, you can easily get an infection started. So don't scratch :}

How can I safely and effectively prevent my cat from scratching furniture by buttering its paws?

Buttering your cat's paws to prevent scratching furniture is not a safe or effective method. It can cause discomfort and stress to your cat. Instead, provide appropriate scratching posts, trim your cat's nails regularly, and use deterrents like double-sided tape or citrus sprays on furniture. Consistent positive reinforcement and redirection can help train your cat to use scratching posts instead.
