Overcoming Clawing Irritations

Like any companion, cats may do things we don't like and that get on our nerves.

Scratching something they shouldn't is a major irritation for just about everyone. Thing not to do is get angry--this won't help. Instead, you should immediately understand that the cat is scratching something it shouldn't for one of two reasons or combination of the two: 1. The absence of an approved scratching target in its environment; and 2. It hasn't been trained properly.

The solution is to purchase or build a good scratching post and then train your cat or cats to use it. The first part of this is pretty easy.  (Naturally I highly recommend Natural Scratch.)

Part Two--training--might seem a daunting challenge but truly isn't that hard if you have a sensible method and follow it.

It has worked well for many humans and cats.
