Stopping cat from clawing furniture
One of our cats is bad about clawing some of our furniture. Can anyone recommend a spray or remedy to stop her? She has never been an outside cat.

If you aren't already doing it, I'd start with the simplest and most likely to be effective thing -- weekly nail trimming. It's very easy to trim a cat's claws. If that doesn't produce satisfactory results, then I'd start looking for scratching posts that resemble the fabric on the furniture the cat is scratching. Sprinkle whatever you get with some catnip, or use a catnip spray on it. At the same time start using a squirt bottle and/or double sided tape to discourage the furniture clawing. If none of those works satisfactorily, then I'd try SoftPaws. If you don't want to apply them yourself (or can't), most groomers and vets will do it.
