    And that’s why I have leather couches. You don’t see the hair until you need to move the cushions, then you have little mountains to vacuum up. Or, put the cushion back down and watch your living room turn into a snow globe

      But their nails will ruin the couches before long.

      That’s why I have covers on my fake leather couch. 2 layers, actually, but we used to have a great Dane.

        15 years and counting. Idk if Italian leather makes the difference though. I didn’t buy them, gift from my parents. Nails aren’t the issue, wet dog is. Every year I have to buy leather dye but it doesn’t last. I’m about to get rid of them.

          That’s because most people don’t train their cats. They let them get away with stuff as a kitten because it’s cute, so when they’re adults and the behavior is an actual issue, it’s much harder to train out.

          But I wasn’t even talking about them scratching on the furniture. Pet nails often touch the surface they’re standing on, so they will cause damage by just existing if allowed on the furniture.
