Tips to keep your cat off your leather

Scratch guards help prevent your cat from harming your leather couch.

They stick to the sofa using tape and fit all over it, particularly the sides and corners that cats love to scratch.

While they won’t stop your cat from scratching, they redirect their claws to the guards, saving your leather.

You can replace them when they get worn out.
