Doesn’t always work

We had this old chair from the 60s our cat loved to rip up over the scratching boards.

The fabric was like a very coarse weave so naturally her claws would catch and then she’d scratch.

After it got too far gone we just made sure to never buy material like that and she’s never scratched furniture since.
