Many owners of four-legged furry friends complain that their pets tear wallpaper and furniture in the house. There can be two reasons: physiological and psychological.

Cats naturally have sharp claws that they constantly need to sharpen. On the street, they can sharpen them anywhere, and indoors you need to prepare a special claw for your pet. If you have such a device, but the cat bypasses it and runs to tear the sofa or wallpaper, then, most likely, the furry one wants to show its territory and character.
To teach a cat to claw, you need to show him how to do it, then sprinkle it with special means that contain catnip. But in order to get rid of scratching the wallpaper or sofa, it is recommended to apply perfume or sprays with a citrus aroma, which cats do not like, to the surface. You can try to put orange peels near the "forbidden" place and check.
