Can cats scratch up rattan furniture?
Rattan is wood and therefore cats can damage it if they choose. There is no wood that cats can’t damage. You have to train your cats to go to scratching posts and mats covered with catnip and hope for the best. And keep their claws clipped often. We have two Maine Coons. They are large cats and they have huge claws. They have not destroyed our furniture but they love our woodwork. We are in the process of training them to not love our woodwork and it is working. We have tons of mats and toys with catnip and they seem to turn their attention to them. As I always say, find a way to redirect their interest. Catnip usually does that. Good luck and stay focused.
