Cat cage
My mom bought a cat cage today because she had enough of our cat.. The first thing they do is scratching the newly bought sofa which caused it to look ugly. We could get an anti scratch sofa by adding few hundred but she said it's too expensive. Few weeks after the sofa my cat have scratched it a lot. 311
I have suggested to buy scratch post for the cat but she keeps forgetting. We have recently moved into new place and my mom have been letting our cat roam free anywhere untill one morning she saw 2 of my cat poop in our neighborhood house (their front house floor) She got extremely angry and was scared that our new neighbors would complain cause she can't handle complain and would be super stressed so she bought a huge cat's cage in that day and putted them in. I feel bad for the cats but I can't really fight against my mom.. Any suggestions what's a better decision in this? The neighbor's also told my mom that if a person complain, an authority would take our cat and end it's life if we don't take it back which also caused her to get scared.
Tldr: cat scratch newly bought sofa and dining chair mom still okay just a lil bit mad and still let they roam. Cat poop in neighborhood front yard - mom got crazy mad and scared that the neighborhood would complain so she bought a cat cage and putted them in. 311
