Behavior and interaction: Biting, chewing, and scratching
Mentor Q&A

My kitten Blossom loves to scratch my furniture. I have bought the kitty condos that are supposed to contain catnip for her to scratch, but she always goes to the couch or chair. Any hope?

My 4-month-old kitten starts clicking his teeth extremely loudly when he's ready to attack a bug. Why is this?

I have been unsuccessful at keeping my kitten off the table while I eat - how can I correct this behavior?

I have a kitten that is 9 months old and she has the nasty habit of chewing my daughter's pacifiers - my 5 months old’s pacifiers more than my 22 month old’s. How can I get her to stop chewing on the pacifiers?

Why does my ten-month-old kitten bite?

How can I keep my 6-week-old kitten from scratching my 2-year-old daughter? Is there anything that I can do?

Help! My 14-week-old kitten's behavior is getting worse. She has gotten to the point that when you tell her no about doing something, she waits until your back is turned and then she will run up your back, claws fully extended and then takes off and hides. Is there anything I can do to make her stop and be nice?

We just got a 4-month-old kitten and I can’t get him to use scratch pad. It’s a Turbo scratcher with a ball for him to play with a pad in middle. He’s scratching everything else BUT that. Our other cat always used it.
