It happens fast! Your cat takes one good stretch on the sofa, and suddenly your furniture has snags. Once they pick a spot, they often keep coming back, making the damage worse over time.
If you're tired of this battle, there's a fantastic solution: Cat-e-Corner, the cat scratch furniture protector. This great item has literally saved thousands of sofas from determined claws. Wondering what makes a good cat scratch furniture protector and how it actually encourages your cat to scratch it instead of your nice sofa, chairs, or armchair? Let's talk about the important things you should know.
How This Unique Cat Scratch Furniture Protector Came to Be
This story began with a common cat parent problem. Jeremy, founder of Hilde & Phil, and his wife brought home two kittens, Hilde and Phil, right after moving into their first home. Along with the new house came a brand-new sofa.
It didn’t take long for the kittens to start clawing the arms of the couch. After all the effort put into making their living room look nice, Jeremy didn’t want to hide the sofa under blankets or settle for clunky, unattractive cat scratch furniture protectors already on the market.
Instead, he decided to create something better. Using 3D design software, he sketched a new concept, then built the first version in his workshop.
The result?
A functional, attractive cat scratch furniture protector that his cats instantly loved, and his wife approved of, too. When friends and family saw it, they wanted one for their homes as well.
That early success became the foundation for Hilde & Phil, with a patent-pending design that has now protected countless sofas from sharp claws.
How the Cat-e-Corner Works?
Setting it apart from standard protectors, the Cat-e-Corner cat scratch furniture protector doesn’t just block scratching—it redirects it. Cats naturally prefer its sisal surface, which makes it an irresistible scratching spot.
1. Dual Purpose Design
The Cat-e-Corner covers the side of your sofa or armchair, shielding the fabric. But it also doubles as a small side table, giving you extra surface space for your mug, phone, or book.
2. Adjustable Height for a Perfect Fit
Sofa arms come in different heights, and this was a big challenge during the design process. To solve it, the Cat-e-Corner uses wooden risers that can be added or removed to match your sofa’s exact height.
- 22.5" to 25" (57–63.5 cm): No risers needed.
- 25" to 27" (63.5–68.5 cm): Add the 2-inch riser.
- 27" or taller (68.5 cm+): Add the 4-inch riser.
The design guarantees a snug fit, so it blends perfectly with your sofa arm, appearing as original furniture.
3. Premium Materials
For a harmonious addition to your living space, the Cat-e-Corner is available in two solid natural wood finishes: Maple and Black Walnut. Both are responsibly sourced and finished with an eco-friendly varnish for durability and sustainability.
Refreshing the Scratching Surface
Every cat has a unique scratching style, which is why the Cat-e-Corner uses interchangeable sisal mats for cats.
