Our proprietary Stop the Scratch spray uses a safe, non-toxic and alcohol-free formula composed of extra strength naturally-derived ingredients like Rosemary Extract and Lemongrass to deter scratching behavior in kittens and adult cats. Cats scratch for several reasons.1. To express themselves, mark a territory and play2. To cure boredom and relieve stress. They also have an incredibly strong sense of smell. Did you know that cats have twice as many receptors in the olfactory epithelium (i.e. smell-sensitive cells in their noses) as people do? Pretty cool. This means that cats use that strong sense of smell to determine what areas to congregate, or hang out in. Quite simply, Stop the Scratch helps you to quickly and painlessly train them that the areas they are scratching are off-limits.
