Scratching is a normal behavior for cats. The instinct to scratch is hard-wired into cats; they scratch to mark territory and promote healthy nail growth as well as stretch and tone muscles and even alleviate stress. Help prevent scratching on furnishings by using a scratch deterrent training spray on furniture popular with claws. Our Petlinks Scratch Stop Spray is the perfect antidote for those sweet little daggers that claw into your home furnishings! When used in conjunction with scratchers, deterrents are very effective at training your cat where it's acceptable to scratch. Application amount and application recurrence vary depending upon each cat's response to the spray. DIRECTIONS: Apply a small amount to the fabric surface you want to protect. Scratch Stop Spray may damage certain surfaces, including but not limited to: wood finishes, painted surfaces, leather, vinyl, micro suede, microfiber and wallpaper. Always test a small section in an inconspicuous area for a minimum of 48 hours before full application. Observe your cat's behavior - cats will have varying responses to Scratch Stop Spray, and application amount and recurrence vary depending on each cat. Reapply as often as needed.
