My cat is shedding, I brush her and then pet her, more hair?
I don’t know what to do , I try to keep her off of the furniture she just sheds like crazy. My other cat does not shed bad at all. Any suggetions will be greatly appreciated.

I have a nice tower/perch set up next to our sliding door so that our cat can perch on top and look down at people walking by or so that she can get some sun. She has stopped using her perch and when I put her on it, she immediately jumps off and picks a small area behind some other furniture to get some sun.
Sorry, I forgot to mention that we live on the second floor, so I don’t think anyone would of scared her. As for birds, she is endlessly trying to catch them! I don’t know if I’ve seen a bird she is scared of yet.
My 3 year old female cat gets restless in the winter, because she is such an outdoor cat. so she channels that restlessness on the furniture!! my mom is getting REALLY mad and she says if I don’t find a solution she wants to get rid of the cat! we have a scratching post for her, and we’ve trained her to use it. we use couch covers, anti-scratching spray, and nothing really seems to work. de-clawing is not an option, because her whole life is practically outside and she would be defenseless. what should i do i love my cat to death!
Ahh i am sure i will have the usual "if your so worried about furniture then dont get a cat" posts, but i am hoping to just get some honest answers here..And for the record since i got some hate mail after asking my bay window question, i would NEVER declaw a cat..I am just looking for some answers to some questions and some solutions to some things from people who have the same issues…
I have owned cats before and never had a problem with them clawing at the rug..I recently had an older cat which i was taking care of and he seemed to love my rugs in the bathroom not to scratch on, just do that nesting motion with his paws…
I have Berber carpets in my home and i realized its the same material as scratching posts..For those of you with berber carpets, do your cats seem attracted to your floor to use as a scatching post?
Our home was just put with new carpeting when we moved in. We have pergo flooring throughout the home and just the 2 bedrooms and part of the living room has carpeting…I was just curious if cats are attracted to using the berber carpet as a scratchign post…
Also, for any reason has your cat scratched up your lamianate flooring?
Anything to protect my furniture T.T

What all do I need to know about Nail Caps anyway…
Do they really stay on or anything else. Lemme Know.
I dont think declawing is right
-*Thinks of someone cutting the tips of my fingers off*-
I REALLY want the nail covers but not if they are a waste of money and the cat will keep scratching at the furniture with them on until he sucessfully rips through them. (Hmm. I wonder if cats stop scratching stuff up altogether with those things on after clawwing at stuff and nothing happens…)
Thank you all in advance!

my cat keeps scratching on the furniture. i try keeping her away from it but she wont listen to me. I even have a scratching post for her
My cat has a two scratching posts (one vertical, one horizontal) and while he uses them regularly, he still insists on scratching my furniture and carpet runner that is on my stairs. I have tried double sided tape and balloons to deter him. Nothing works! Please recommend a spray that I can try or suggest other ideas. And no, declawing is not an option – too cruel. Thanks!
Hi – I have a cat that is almost a year old. She is home alone most of the day because I am at work. I feel like she is lonely because she acts out alot when I do get home from work. I bought her alot of toys and a window perch to keep her busy during the day, but she still has these behavior issues. She climbs the curtains, attacks me, will bite sometimes pretty hard, plucks the furniture. I try to distract her with toys and play with her but the moment i stop, she starts acting crazy again. Then she will be fine afterwards and come sit with me. I am also worried because her eye will start twitching when she gets excited. She will sit and stare at me and one of her eyes will start twitching. It happens often. Should I be worried that something is wrong with her and thats why shes acting this way?
Now before I get a bunch of "Well let me pull out your finger nails and toenails and see how you like it" comments, I’m just asking. I’m not an advocate of torturing animals. Ok? Calm now? Good. So how do you keep your cat from scratching up your furniture? Besides getting a cat scratch post? Just curious.
I like the soft paws thing. It’s pretty cool. The cats don’t seem to mind it I guess? Plus they’re not in pain if they had their claws removed.
We’re getting a new couch but the problem is that the cat always scratches the furniture and the new couch will surely be destroyed. So my question is; how do I get him to use his scratching post?
