My cat is not declawed (I do not believe in it), so she scratches at our couch constantly. I was on the hunt to find a product! However, I did not want sprays that could damage our furniture or leave a nasty odor. When I came across this product, I just knew that I had to try it. I am so glad that I did! It was very easy to apply to the couch. Since putting on, she scratches, but it no longer leaves marks and tears on the couch.
