Sure thing! Here are three different ways you can try to keep your cat from scratching the furniture:

**Provide Alternatives**: Get a scratching post or two and place them near the furniture your cat likes to scratch. Make them appealing by rubbing catnip on them or getting ones with different textures. Cats love to scratch, so giving them a designated spot can really help!

**Use Deterrents**: You can try using double-sided tape on the furniture. Cats usually don’t like the sticky feeling on their paws. There are also sprays available that can deter them from scratching certain areas. Just make sure they’re safe for pets!
