So, my bengal cat, Sophia seems to have taken a liking to the corners of the walls at my new condo and keeps scratching them, leaving huge scratch marks and taking the paint off!
I clip her claws on a regular basis and she has a scratching post (among other things). She seems to like wood a lot (though the walls are just regular dry wall...) so I plan on building her a wooden scratching post.
Beyond that however, how can I stop her from scratching at my walls? I'm really getting irritated with her. I catch her in the act and always stop her from doing it, but she doesn't learn.
I've heard double-sided tape works ok. I don't have any furniture to really put in front of these spots because like I said, they're at the corners, and any furniture would block the hallways. I don't want to declaw her, but I can't have her destroying my place, either.
Any thoughts?
