How can I stop cats scratching at a door at night?
They’re not allowed to sleep in the bedrooms because they’re a pain and bounce all over you all night and I’m sleep deprived as it is. But they SCRAAAAAATCH constantly all night and it makes such a noise. I have tried:
-tin foil on the door (Tin foil being shredded is even louder..)
-stuff in front of the door (disassembled loudly)
-lavender oil/cinnamon oil on door (ignored.)
-spray bottle of water used on cat when it scratches (look of great indignation, but no behavioural change.)
What can I do?
