The territorial trophy in Stray can be unlocked by finding an object to scratch in each chapter. There are 12 chapters in which there are varying amounts of scratch items available. In some chapters, only one scratch spot can be found, so they can be very well hidden and easy to miss, especially in areas such as sewers. To unlock the territory trophy, the cat will need to scratch and mark its territory at least once in each chapter.
There are several different types of objects that can be scratched. The most common objects are wooden boards, rugs or couches. In some cases, the cat may also scratch a tree or wall during the chapter. It doesn’t matter what the cat scratches, the main thing is that at least one item is marked for all 12 chapters. Since the slums in the Tramp are visited in both the fourth and sixth chapters, players will need to mark their territory at different sites for each part of the story. Slums are the only area visited in several chapters.

Scratching objects is a simple process, so it only takes a few extra seconds to stop and mark something in each chapter. The cat can approach any scratched object in the chapter and use the interaction button to start. Players then need to press the two buttons or keys displayed on the screen back and forth to scratch with both front paws. After a few seconds, players can exit and the scratch for this chapter will be completed.
Mats, boards and other scratch spots in Stray
There are two chapters in Stray in which you need to find and scratch only one object. Both the Dead End and the Sewer, which are areas for the seventh and eighth chapters, have only one place to scratch, so players need to make sure they don’t miss it. In other chapters there are at least two scratches, but in some there are much more. There are a lot of places in areas like slums or downtown, so players can just pick the first thing they see.
Chapter 1 (Inside the Wall): At the beginning of the game, there is an area where cats scratch a tree, and players can also scratch it.
