How to Keep Cats off Furniture
Another way to make furniture less alluring to pets is with scents they don't like. Cats dislike citrus scents, so use orange- or lemon-scented linen spray on their favorite chair or sofa. Linen spray is safe for bedding fabrics but refer to the label for specific recommendations, instructions and warnings. Some sprays are motion activated and designed to emit a hissing sound rather than a pheromone mist; the sound startles the cat, training it to avoid the area.
