Cats often tear wallpaper or damage furniture with their claws.
In this article, we will tell you what causes this pet behavior and what can be done about it.
Why do cats start tearing wallpaper
Cats, as a rule, scratch furniture and tear up wallpaper not because they want to offend the owner, but because they have a physiological need for it.
Loose claws are exactly what irritates cats.
Sharpening claws is a natural physiological need for cats.
In the wild, cats can wear off their claws on any object.
If the animal does not have this opportunity in the house, the claws grow and split, bringing discomfort to the cat.
Therefore, wanting to get rid of this, pets begin to tear wallpaper and damage furniture.
Therefore, it is important to buy your cat a scratching post, as it is simply necessary for the pet’s normal well-being.
Also, spend enough time with the animal.
If you don't spend enough time with your cat, your pet may get bored or angry and start damaging things in the house.
What wallpaper to choose so that the cat does not tear
To prevent your pet from damaging the walls, it is enough to choose the right wallpaper.
Non-woven wallpaper is well suited for houses with cats.
By increasing the cellulose fiber content, they are stronger than conventional coatings.
The structure is similar to fabric, so it will be more difficult for an animal to tear them.
