Hello, I'm new here!
We just adopted a kitten, about 7 weeks old. She starts scratching whenever she plays, all over the place seems like. I know that I can protect furniture with sticky tape or citrus spray, but what about our carpets? I don't want her to feel like she doesn't want to step on the carpets at all; what is she supposed to do with herself!
We got her a cardboard straching board and will be making her a sisal post, but for now it's mostly the vertical surfaces she prefers. She is too young for the inticement of catnip, so what else can I do in training her to not go for the carpets?
