Boycat was on the back of the sofa a couple of nights ago, hunting some tiny flying insect. The insect paused for a moment on the wall an Boycat whapped it with his paw and slightly scratching the wallpaper in the process. Next thing I know, he's scratching at the tiny scrape on the wall and elongating it. I chased him off, and thought that was that.
Yesterday evening I catch him scratching at it again, followed by Girlcat taking her turn with her teeth and pulling little bits off. I now have an area a few inches wide and well over a foot long where they've managed to completely remove a strip of wallpaper!
I luckily have a dado rail so they can't tear it away all the way down to the floor, but I can easily see them widening it until they've cleared all along the back of the sofa. Can't really move the sofa due to the shape of the room and size of the sofa, how on earth can I make them stop? I know it's a fun new game for them and they may be bored, but I've tried so many ways to keep them entertained & they just aren't interested.
