Naraku4656 Posted August 7, 2018 Posted August 7, 2018 i've wanted one for years but i didn't want to have it possibly ruin my *at the time* new furniture. now that those are getting a bit older i've been catching myself browsing the local SPCA site having to remind myself BAD NARAKU NO CATS
fuggstop Posted August 7, 2018 Posted August 7, 2018 U can train kitty not to scratch furniture Getting scratching posts will help Especially those infused with catnip
discolé monade Posted August 8, 2018 Posted August 8, 2018 please rescue a kitty. he/she needs you to. 1
Swimmod_Luna Posted August 8, 2018 Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) My cats both have all their claws and two of my mom's do. No furniture has been damaged by any of the cats. Cats can be trained. But really we didn't even have to train ours not to scratch furniture. The only thing u have to watch for is that cats do have a "preference" for how to scratch. When we got Gordon he would scratch the carpet even though we have several vertical scratching posts. We bought some flat floor scratching posts and now he only scratches those. Just put catnip and treats on the scratching posts and make a loud sound when u catch them scratching something they shouldn't. Edited August 8, 2018 by Athena 92

The older kitties need a lot of help finding home. I have always been partial to the polydactyl cats... So pretty

Gyaos Posted August 8, 2018 Posted August 8, 2018 I got a rescue cat who is currently enjoying life at the age of 10 and still has a spring in his step. He was two years old by the time I had him. I like adult cats more than kittens, though, so that is a factor I considered.
Naraku4656 Posted August 8, 2018 Author Posted August 8, 2018 i also like adult cats more. kittens are too much work
