I caught her clawing the couch this morning. We just purchased a new lovesac with velvet covers, which are pretty resilient to this kind of abuse, because she is so inclined to do this. I think what happened was that she chased her little toy over to that corner and then had pent up aggression or energy that she decided to take out on that juicy couch corner. She has a scratch post on the other side of the couch because she is only very rarely on that side.
I tried picking her up and moving her to this scratch post (she hates being picked up) and putting her paws on the scratch post, but she gave me her most pitiful meow and decided she was done clawing lol. I've caught her clawing the couch on the other side right next to this scratch post, so maybe this scratch post isn't as good as the couch for some reason. We know she likes vertical scratch posts and sisal, and she'll definitely use that one, so beyond that I'm not sure what's wrong with it.
