I have a some variety of scratcher on every corner of the couch. I have some rope ones, carpet ones, a low one. My cat really just prefers to scratch the couch. Any attempt to persuade her to scratch the scratchers, she sees as a fun game and scratches the couch more.

With my two, when they were ready to scratch the wrong thing, I simply picked them up and put them near the scratching post. No sweet talk, no scolding either - I didn't want to encourage them to scratch the furniture for attention.

My cat loves being picked up, so she would do it again for that alone.
