How do you repair semi deep scratches made by a cat in wooden furniture?

Apr 13, 2007 by autumnheart | Posted in Cats

I have a young cat and she is always scratching my wooden furniture we've tried everything, spray bottle with water, scratching post, that cardboard box stuff, tape, loud noises, and nothing stops her from doing it, so now I have so many tiny little streaks of scratches but they are more noticeable now. since she's continuously scratching this one wooden chest I have, the scratches are really deep and noticeable, is there anyway to repair it or at least make it look less noticeable? I mean it's really bad it looks like I got a thin screwdriver and just kept scratching and scratching the side, there are even a couple chunks missing...please help! Also if you have any ideas what might work on getting her to stop scratching would be great!

You can go to any home inprovement store like Lowe's or Home Depot and get these wax crayon type things that come in a pack in all different wood stain colors. They work because you can blend them together to get good match colorwise and the waxy part fills in the scratch. I think they are in the paint/stain dept. I have cats, and have had their front claws taken out. They are indoor cats, but if they happen to get out and get chased by a dog, they can still climb a tree with their back claws.

I sent my best friend this link and he bought one for his kitty, Mouse. This little chalet is the cutest thing ever. My cat saw it and immediately went inside to check it out and was jealous until I reminded him of his IKEA kitty tent with heated fleece bed. I guess I’lll get one for my kitty, Noodles, next Christmas or whenever his kitty tent falls apart….whichever happens first. =^..^=
