<human>:  How do I get my cat to stop scratching the furniture?
<bot>: The best way to get your cat to stop scratching the furniture is to provide them with a scratching post or scratching pad. Make sure to position it in areas where your cat normally likes to scratch, and make it attractive to encourage their use. Additionally, you can spray citrus scents on the furniture, as cats generally don't like citrus smells. Giving cats plenty of playtime and exercise can help reduce their scratching behaviors as well.
