To control where the cat scratches and to discourage it from using its sharp claws on furniture, carpets, wallpaper, garbage bags, and other items in the home, Karlie's anti-scratch spray is a good training aid. The affected areas are sprayed with the anti-scratch spray. This treatment should be repeated regularly until the cat loses interest in the spot. Additionally, the cat should be provided with plenty of scratching alternatives in the form of scratching posts, boards, and toys to satisfy its natural scratching instinct.
