Can you put it on the corner of a couch? My cat claws the corner of the couch but I don't want her to be temp deterred just because it hangs funny.

I'm sure you could. If you need it to hang down then you could put the side the holds the battery on the seat of the couch and let the rest of the mat hang down. Btw I absolutely love this scatmat! It works so well.

I didn't need to put it on my couches fortunately. But they are light and flexible enough that if you position the battery compartment near the floor and use good double sided tape, I think it would work well.

Oh my YES!! I have put this mat every place I don't want my cat to go. All it takes now is for her to see it and she won't go anywhere near where I have placed it. I basically purchased this because she was clawing up the corner of my couch. I laid it across the couch and no more clawing. It's a great product!!!!

were you thinking about hanging it off the egde? I would think as long as it has something behind it to support it somehow, just so it's not just hanging there flapping around, it would still work ok. I suppose you could put the most of it on the couch and let part of it drape down the side where she scratches.

Not quite sure what you are asking. If you are asking if it can hang over an edge and still operate, the answer is yes. It is flexible enough to hang easily without it affecting the operation. You will probably need to secure it in some way to keep it from slipping off the couch.

Thank you for your question! This would really depend on how you are planning on putting it on the corner of the couch. Whether you plan on placing it on top of a cushion, underneath a cushion, hanging it off the side of the couch, etc. Without these details, it is difficult to say whether it would work correctly or not. Please give our Customer Care Center a call at 1-800-732-2677 and we would be happy to answer any questions you may have about the Scat Mat and it's operation. Hours of operation are 8AM-8PM EST Monday-Friday and 9AM-5PM EST on Saturdays.

No, but I wouldn't want my cat anywhere near it. Think about walking across something and then licking its paws. I wear safety glasses when working with it.

Absolutely! Mine just sits on the floor horizontally in front of our tv stand and is about 2' long. This is the ONLY scratching post/device my cat uses and has saved our couches!

It's possible. My cat isn't a clawer so we haven't had issues but I can imagine a cat could claw through it.

It can be prevented. It is designed to sense movement below its line of sight, so I installed it upside down at head level. That way, my two cats can't trigger it even if they climb almost to shoulder height. (To clarify, I installed it in a place where it doesn't get direct sunlight from above.)

Thanks for asking this. I have allergies and cannot have a cat attached to my bedding. I hope it can it be removed somehow so I can attach it to something outdoors.

It works best on furniture that moves when cat hops on it. I don't think it would work for you.

It is not sturdy enough to have cats climbing on it. I have a cat too, but I keep him out of that room for that exact reason.

Sure! It is really great because it is only heated when you cat lies on it. Buy it!!!

I'm not sure because small tacks attach them to the sofa or chair by attaching to the wood frame. The frame goes up the back of furniture, but on the side, it might be too low to do any good if the cat stands on his back legs. Sorry it took a while to answer; your email got lost in the pile.

Hi. You would just need to drape it over the areas that you do not want the cat on. Just make sure that you understand that the unit will shock you as well if you come in contact with it.Thank you!

I have not tried it there.. but I would think it would be more of a pain to the person than the cats. Perhaps put it on a board or something that you can leave on the counter then move out of the way? I have been finding that removing the tape is not as easy as I though, esp. the longer it stays on. Fabric is fine, but doors and walls has become difficult to peel off.

If you can purchase a Scatmat that is longer than your sofa you can drape it across both arms while placing it on the seat cushions. You would probably have to purchase one for the back if your cat can jump the depth of the sofa or jump up the back. We found the "medium" setting works for our dogs. Good luck!

Hi, don't have a cat but do know that the cover would not withstand the sharp claws of a kitty. I use a duvet cover and recommend that (which may help with active pets). In my opinion, no coverlet would fair well being clawed, I've seen the damage that happen. Otherwise a great value.

I liked it because it fit the corner but the cat didn't and won't use it. She's a long lady and didn't seem to have the room she needs/wants so I'm now using a storage, under the bed box, for her. It's working fine.

My cats are declawed in the front but have the rear claws. We never had an issue. Unless your cats' claws are long, it shouldn't be an issue.

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.
