Help! Cat chews on furniture

[Donald E. Scott]

My daughter's lovely, loving, and bright siamese, Coco, is chewing on
the new leather chair. Coco, an indoor cat, has been declawed because
she insisted on shredding the sofa. Is she chewing on the furniture
because she is bored? She has plenty of toys to play with but she is
alone all day while her Mama is at work. How can my daughter stop Coco
from destroying this lovely chair? To my knowledge Coco hasn't chewed
on any of the other pieces of furniture - are cats attracted to leather
for chewing? Help!

Can't offer any advice... sorry. I went through a chewing phase with
my own cat, Pandora, and fortunately she outgrew it. When she was
younger, she chewed the corner of my solid cherry bedside table ...
made a real mess of it.
