I have new leather furniture and a grandson that loves his cats. Would this be sufficent covering to avoid cat scratches

it was designed to be a blanket for warmth and is very soft / silky - you may need something more conforming to the leather sofa itself - perhaps an indian weave blanket, thicker

I don't think the throw would stay on a leather couch too well especially with a child and cats. Probably would stop cat scratches but would take a lot of adjusting.

This blanket would be perfect for that use, and is actually what I use mine for now; to protect a leather couch form pets and kids. Also, this is probably the softest blanket I have ever owned.

It's just a fabric backing--nothing that would harm leather. HOWEVER, this does not stay put on my corduroy furniture, so would slip around even more on leather. I finally got so tired of it that I took it off altogether. Now I just put a very bit sofa pillow on my chair when I am not sitting on it and that seems to discourage our dog from getting on it.

The bottom side of this is a a different material than the top side. It is not a snug fit so it will move around on the seat a little if the dog moves around on it. I am not for sure it would scratch the leather, but I could see that it might over a period of time. If you flipped it over and put the cloth side against the seat, that would probably not hurt the leather but then you might lose the waterproof part of the cover. I don't have leather seats so I can't really say for sure. I will say that it's probably better to have it covering the leather than having a dogs claws on the leather. :)

Yes. we have leather in our truck as well and two goldens one 90lbs and one 80lbs and haven't had in scratches show up. Hope this helps! :)

It would work great as far as preventing your kitten off it, but yes it would leave a residue which you *might* be able to clean off and it could possibly hurt the finish. I recommend trying the tape on a place not easily seen (like underneath the table) and see its effects. But keep in mind that you can avoid using the tape and try to train the kitten by leaving a cardboard scratch box near the table and encouraging him to use that instead of your nice wood.

Of course with anything, you would want to keep it covered (i.e. tarp, an awning etc), however, I bought this for my friend who had a stray cat, and the cat was extremely happy all winter long. I have had my own for several years now for my stray cats (I keep it under an awning) and my strays have been happy year after year.

This is an open weave fabric, which leads me to believe that the cat's claws may get caught in it. It would probably also look unsightly after the first use. I would recommend using a carpet remnant pie e or wrap the pole with thick sisal rope. That would be more durable and cat friendly.

I don't have a cat but I would think it is cat proof.. My husky's scratch on it pretty hard and jump on it and the screen is not torn. It is very durable!

I have a leather couch, so it was not an issue for me. I have blankets over the dog beds though and it did not leave any marks on those so you should be okay. The outer layer flakes off a bit but that can be easily wiped away. I hope this helps.

I would not suggest it. It leaves behind a sticky film that doesn't come off easily. I was able to use goo gone because it was on my table but I'm pretty sure you can't use that on leather so I wouldn't risk it. I would suggest keeping a scratching post a few feet away from the couch and rub catnip on it so it prefers to use the scratching post instead.

Probably not. I purchased to cover for my new laptop to prevent such scratches. Good luck.

I wouldn't think so. I've never seen either of my two cats scratch it. It is very soft and pliable so it's not really conducive to scratching.

I have put them on painted wood without any problems. However, I would not put them on furniture though since it is too risky but then again, cat scratches on furniture look awful! I also put them on our leather couches and my kitties no longer claw the couches. I only wish I had discovered sticky paws BEFORE the cats pretty much ruined them!

Well, it will cover it and make it look nicer but the cat can still claw through it if you still have the kitty. I bought the twin one so I can't tell you much about the one for the king box spring. I was not happy with the mattress cover I bought, it frayed and got holes in the middle of it in a short time but the box spring cover is still good, But like I said, I bought the twin one. My cat has a box that she scratches on. A scratching post box. She uses that. I used to have a cat before her years ago that dug a big hole in my box spring and thought it was a nice hiding place. Good luck.

It's a good cloth covering for your furniture for protecting from pet fur, however, anything wet....saliva, throw-up, urine, etc. will go right through fabric and onto the upholstery or leather. For that reason I had to also buy puppy pads and put them on the sofa underneath the covers. Not an ideal solution for what I needed them for.

Hi, I actually just put this one on the floor before we mounted it to one of our oak beams. I was worried my two rescues would not scratch it as they already were totally in love with their old one which was " scratched out". They loved it the minute I put it down. I would worry about mounting it to your couch because I think they would decide your entire couch was a scratching post! Maybe on the wall or in a corner. I find it best to mount it to something because my cats put their entire weight into it and all other "posts" fall over and then they don't want to bother with it. This is a really good product in my history of many kitty angels.Best of luckKathy, Halo and Jasmine Hi, I actually just put this one on the floor before we mounted it to one of our oak beams.

Yes it is a great product for covering an unsightly bed.. But i dont think it will stop animal (cats) from marking in the same area. For that id use special tape or spray from the pet store.
