I'm liking this. Similar to what I did with a regular scratching post
(homemade by my dad). It isn't at all sturdy so I put one end under the
edge of the couch to keep it upright, and all of mine love it there.

That looks like a good product. I have a scratchy tree right next to the edge
of my couch for this reason. Maybe this wouldn't be as unobtrusive. I hope it
wouldn't encourage her to scratch the couch. She's never scratched the couch
with the scratchy tree right there and I mean the scratchy tree base is under
the couch leg. Thanks

Wow, those are neat! My cats don't scratch the couch though so I wouldn't need
it, but I'm sure there's lots that could use it.

I have never used this product, but I can visualize a problem -- that is, I
specifically locate my scratching posts a short distance away from furniture
so that a cat won't be misdirected to scratch on the furniture itself.

I think it would be for those that just want to keep the couch or chair
unscratched, and not completely directed at training them away from
furniture. It might also get them used to the carpet texture instead of
apolstry. I think for some people, who just want to whisk them away when
company visits it might be a good product.
