Cats like to scratch and bite randomly. You can buy some toys for them. When they get tired from playing, they will naturally not have the energy to scratch around. You can prepare a scratching board for the cat and take the cat to the scratching board to sharpen its claws. You can trim your cat's nails regularly and choose a more comfortable place for your cat.

You can buy some toys for the cat, such as carpet sets for sharpening claws, hanging balls, moving toy mice, etc. Let the cat play with toys until it gets tired and loses the energy to scratch.

Prepare a scratching post for the cat

You can prepare special claw sharpening tools for cats, such as cat scratching boards, and place them in places where cats like to go. If your cat starts to scratch its claws on the furniture, say "no" immediately and take it to a place where there is a scratching post. The cat may be noisy at first, but after a few times it will patiently grind its claws. Praise it when it sharpens its claws very skillfully. In this way, the cat will naturally remember the place where it sharpened its claws.

Basically all cats dislike having their nails cut, and this is not because they feel pain. Before cutting the cat's nails, it is best to choose a more comfortable place, put the cat on the legs or knees, stroke the paws first and then push out the claws to cut the nails.
