This is a follow up post to the keeping cats out of your plants. I saw alot of complaints about scratching furniture, clawing wires and things of that sort. I tried everything for those things too and of course nothing works.
Training-nope!
Spraying "smell bad sprays"-nope!
Moving the furniture around-nope!
Piling the couches with stuff to keep the cat off-nope!
Re-organizing wires etc...-nope!
One day I was running out the door and I found a new problem solver quite by accident. For every one of those problems. You are going to laugh but I promise you, it has been working for me for over two months already. On everything! I was getting ready to go to work and right before I was leaving Miley hopped up on the couch to scratch away and all I could think of was her scratching my couch into a million pieces all day long while I was gone.
For lack of something better I went into my bedroom, looked around for anything I hadn't tried yet and for whatever reason my eyes landed on my perfume tray. I am sure in every household in America and beyond you have the abandoned perfume tray. Perfumes you bought, have been given and that have appeared mysteriously that you absolutely hate. But you don't throw them out for whatever reason. When someone wants a spritz etc.. you have extra because you never want to loan your FAVORITE perfume! Anyway I headed to that tray and grabbed the strongest one and headed to my couch. I spritzed the area where the cat likes to scratch and she ran screaming. (not literally but close) I noticed she did not even go near the couch for over a week. So then....I spritzed my one carpet in the area she will occasionally sneak a small clawing and realized she wasn't going there anymore either. So now I do this everywhere and it is a win win. She only claws her post and my house smells good. Go figure! I hated the perfume on me but it makes my house smell good! And it doesn't stain or smell more than a few minutes for our noses but for the cat's nose is a permanent turnoff. I just re-spritz once a week.
