Our kitty likes to stretch and claw on things. This leather covered dining chair is her favorite spot.
We squirt her with water from a squirt bottle whenever we catch her doing it, but we aren't always home.
I've had "chair cover" on my list for quite a while and finally got around to making one earlier this week. It took me two tries with muslin before I got what I wanted. Then I made a third one with cotton fabric from my stash and some fusible fleece.
Turned out pretty nice, if I do say so myself! My husband liked it too. And the cat has left the chair alone thus far. I'm not sure that she realizes it is the same chair yet. We'll give it another week or so and if she still hasn't scratched on the chair I'll make covers for the other five of these chairs we have.
