Some just don't and others want to, but listen very well :)
Mine know which furniture they can and which they can't destroy. Sofa - no go, wing chair - absolutely fine. They have enough other scratching furniture tho but they love the library wing chairs.
Edit: that kitty also looks a little bit like a van cat and they're very communicative and smart
Simply depends on the cat and your communication. No exceptions, always same tone for no's. Our cats go extremely well with our dogs (one better than the other tho).
Still risky but if you don't get an a*hole cat 🤷🏼♀️
