Is the material cat claw resistant?

The material is a pretty durable nylon but never having owned a cat I'm not sure if it would stand up to a determined feline. I can tell you that my children love this toy and provides lots of fun, especially on rainy days and in the winter. Unlike the plastic ball pits they can bounce on the sides adding extra fun! Overall I am happy with the product. If you do get it make sure to get 1,000 crush proof balls...500 balls is not enough. Little housekeeping tip, I find the easiest way to clean the balls is loading them up in a bin and dumping them in the bathtub with a mild cleaning solution.Hope this helps...good luck!

No. If you have a cat that likes to scratch, it can certainly scratch this material (or almost any other type of material) to pieces. Keep your cat away from this bounce!

The plastic seems pretty tough, but it has that brushed fabric feel to it. Cats claws may go through it, but I doubt a dog's claws will - unless they're really determined.

I have 2 cats that have punctured my standard metal screens with their nails. These screens have been excellent in terms of not getting holes from the cat nails-and my cats sure try!

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.

No you need to use metal screening. Mice will eat through this. it stands up to cat claws great and I like this screen better than regular screen.

It's a synthetic material with a mesh- like pattern. Very tiny holes in the material. A cat's claws might get caught and rip the material.

I think it will be tough enough for a semi feral cat. It's pretty heavy synthetic material. My cat has scratched at it and it hasn't been damaged - I've had the tent for about 9 months.

I bought this for my cats and they are pretty feisty and have not broken any material. I feel that the material is very durable and I am very pleased with this purchase

Not cat proof. I think a cat could easily perforate the plastic as it isn't very thick. Without plastic, they could easily climb and lay on it.

The backing is a rubber like material. My cats miss periodically as well, and it has not soaked through this backing. To be safe, I would say it is at least "water resistant".

This cat tunnel is made of lightweight material and should not be relied upon for complete security. For instance, a coyote could chew its way through easily. The tunnel and "tent" components are made of cloth netting. If the cat door opens onto a fairly safe area, for instance, a fenced back yard, the ABO cat compound provides a safe outdoor play space. But I would secure the entire structure since it is so lightweight. My cats do love it.

Not at all. There is a cat in the household with extremely sharp nails and she has not damaged the mat. It holds it shape perfectly despite constant traffic and does not appear to stain.

I don't know what the material is, it feels and looks like suede. I have ywo cats and have no problem (and they keep their claws exta sharp. Love the piece--my sister has one and that is where I got idea to purchase.

I would say that it is, but I am no feline orthopod... My cats don't seem to use their claws as much as the pads of their feet when they grab the kibbles out and eat. And you can fill it up with more food to make it a little easier to get, I suppose.

I'm pretty sure it would be okay against kitten claws. I used this with my yorkie when she was a tiny baby almost 3 years ago. She has accidents in this a few times and it was very easy to clean the bottom as it's mad of a plastic cloth material. I just got a kitten my self last Sunday (she's 9 weeks old today.) I ordered the plastic play pen. It's a little more expensive $40 and you also have to buy the top piece to it if you're kitten is already climbing. The top is another $19-20. I'll let you know if I like that one better than this one.

Yes, it's just a solid sheet of clear plastic. Seems like a good idea to me, although I do not have cats.

Our two male Abys are young and have their claws and no problems with breaking through. We do have to make sure the zippers are closed tightly as one time Louie unzipped an end enough to wiggle out. The cats LOVE the tunnel. We have three of them fastened together.
