To discourage a cat from scratching furniture, you can try the following methods:

  1. Provide scratching posts or pads in multiple locations around the house.
  2. Use double-sided tape or a citrus-scented spray on the furniture to deter scratching.
  3. Trim the cat's nails regularly to minimize damage.
  4. Use deterrent sprays specifically designed to discourage scratching.
  5. Reward your cat with treats or playtime when they use the scratching post instead of the furniture.
