Digging everything!

[Luvkenny]

My indoor cat has recently started to dig random things. He dug the woodwork in the bathroom last night. I am beyond grumpy with him. Last week he dug the wallpaper in the family room. Why do you think he is doing this? He is just shy of three years old.

Oh no! It sounds like he is asking for attention. I don't know how to get him to stop. You can try spraying the areas that he has been digging with a water/cayenne pepper mixture. That is supposed to get them to stop.

Maybe he smells something behind the wall. Is it only in these two areas that he's been doing this? I hope the behavior has stopped now.
