Can I use this on furniture? Cat keeps scratching my new chair

Hi! Messina Cat Stopper is for outside use. Product has a strong garlic odor. Not for use on indoor furniture. Products works okay. I apply to garden and other areas as needed. Regards!

It didn't really seem to work for me, maybe it would for you. Try the back of the couch or area not seen first to make sure it doesn't stain. Good luck!

I will not recommend use on furniture, some of the ingredients can damage the finish of varnished wood.

I did 2 things - first I rubbed it on all 4 sides with my cats favorite catnip & second my cat is very possessive of things she thinks are hers so anytime she was close by I scratched the post. I started making the scratching noise & she couldn't resist joining in and swatting at my hand. Hope this helps - good luck

Depends on the chair. It's not a huge investment to try. They do scratch wood floors. We had to put felt tabs on bottom. Have you tried using tennis balls? They can be cut to fit any chair.

No! I had a leayher couth and my cat was so excited..he couldn't help but scratch the couch with his claws. It puts them in a better mood but does not stop yhem from clawing!

I would not use it to keep cats off the furniture, as strong scenting oils (also essential oils) are in fact very dangerous for cats. Check out this article. http://articulateanimals.com/blog/2009/10/essential-oils-2/

We use it on furniture all the time. As long as the finish on the furniture is not peeling, cracking, or chipping, it should work great!

That is what we were concerned about as well. We have 3 cats and this type of fabric (synthetic suede?) is the only type that our cats show no interest in scratching. They jump around on it all the time and so far the sofa still looks new. We love it, it is big and comfortable!

I used it on leather golf shoes and a micro fiber pullover, no problem. I have not used it furniture though and would do a small section first if I was you.

You cats may push this screen over if they start scratching on this screen. I would not recommend if you have cats OR like the cat behaviorist recommends, put a scratching post in front of the place where they like to scratch so they won't scratch a piece of furniture.

I read the bottle label and it does not indicate that it can be used on leather. Specifically states it is a "fiber penetrating spray". I would not use it on my leather furniture.

I have never spayed it on items, only in the air. I am not sure if it would be appropriate for furniture.

I have a cat that likes to climb and I have put a drape cloth over my chair, just to be safe, but I haven't found any where her claws have penetrated yet. Not saying it won't happen, but I did put the old blanket over to be safe

I would say cats with claws would ruin this chair. If I were you I would look for the faux-leather type chair.

The tips are rounded, so I would think it shouldn't scratch your cat's skin. I use this for my husky and I do groom her head where there really isn't much long fur/coat. She doesn't get irritated by it.

I wouldn't think so. I've never seen either of my two cats scratch it. It is very soft and pliable so it's not really conducive to scratching.

it worked but my cat found other places on the sofa to destroy. covering an entire sofa or chair is not practical. i have chenille and it took off some fuzz but basically was ok. the whole thing did not work for me. my couch is in tatters in various locations. never underestimate the cleverness of the feline who wants to scratch!
