Review on Pet MasterMind Claw Withdraw: Effective Cat Scratching Training Spray - Natural Solution with 8oz by Daryl Fitch

We have spent money on a large wool/silk rug for the living room and we have 2 cats with claws. Despite the presence of several fabulous scratching posts, ramps, and horizontal scratching posts in close proximity to the carpet (and new sofa and chair), for some reason they still like to scratch the carpet, causing the pile to be pulled up. I went as far as gluing heavy aluminum foil to the areas that seemed to scratch the most. I found the Claw Withdraw Spray and thought it was worth a try, it's definitely better than foil carpet! When it arrived I tested it on the area under the sofa and it was fine, no stains or dye transfer. I sprayed it on the areas they scratched earlier. In the first week it is recommended to spray 3 times a day. I've found that after the first day they don't scratch those spots, but they still scratch the sprayed spots. So I sprayed the whole carpet. It's been a week since I got the spray and they've scratched a few more times so I spray the entire carpet every night before bed. So far, so good! I definitely need to get in the habit of trimming their nails regularly, but until they know carpets are off limits, Claw Withdraw seems to be working for us. The scent is strong, made from herbal extracts and reminds me of lemongrass, which I find pleasant, but my boyfriend finds it too strong so I diffuse it when he's not around. I will continue to use this spray as long as it helps me combat my cat's scratching of the mat.
