Im wondering what would be the best way to repair these scratches and the proper materials I would need before I move out.

Fill the deepest hole with quick setting joint compound, allow to overnight, apply a coat of topping compound. Sand to remove irregularities then apply a second coat trying to recreate texture (try damp sponge, paint brush etc). Prime and repaint.

Small scratches can be filled with spackle, sanded, primed and painted.

Not sure what to recommend for the blue thing on it right in photos 1&2??

In photos 1 there is a vertical blue stripe on the right side of the cat scratches. Is this a piece of trim? It looks like it has some minor scratches too.
