[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 active cats which have to be left on their own in the house for 2 weeks. I know it's a little long but the situation is unavoidable. 
Pet sitter will be coming twice a day to feed and play with them. I have scratching posts at several places in the house that they regularly use. Additionally they try to use couch, dining table chairs and many other vertical surfaces to scratch. I discourage them when they do that by clapping or making a loud "No" sound. Since I will not be there, the cats are going to have fun by being able to scratch anywhere they want. They also put the paws in to the blinds and try to pull the blinds down. One of them is a wire-chewer too. Here's what I am going to do but I am looking for additional tips. 
1. Remove wires that the cat chews. She targets thin wires in general. 
2. Pull up the blinds. Outsiders will have a free view. Do I have other options? I am worried that their paws may get cut with the sharp edges of the blinds. 
3. Spray cat repellent on chairs and couch but that will fade away in 2 days or they will get used to it. Any other option? 
What else do I do? [/quote]
