39. we trained ours not to claw

Declawing is cruel, and severely affects tendon strength and the joints.

We keep a water spray bottle handy, and let it fly if he attempts to pin the sofa. It works, he rarely ever tries, and is ready to fly when we even reach for the bottle.

Plus, get yourself a nice tall pinning tree, he'll love it! And, he'll learn to pin that and not the furniture.
