Abstract:
A furniture protecting scratching post device. The device includes a base having a pair of sidewalls extending upwardly therefrom wherein the sidewalls are oriented perpendicularly to each other. A top portion is disposed on the upper ends of the sidewalls such that the top portion and the pair of sidewalls define an interior channel. The interior channel is sized to receive the front and side portions of a chair or couch, such that the top portion of the device rests on a front portion of the armrest. A carpeting material is disposed on the base, sidewalls, and top portion. The carpeting material is embedded with catnip to encourage cats to scratch the device rather than the furniture which it is secured to. In this way, the furniture protecting scratching device is adapted to protect an object such as a chair or couch from a cat's scratches.

Claim (Index 4):
The furniture protecting scratching device of  claim 1 , wherein the planar base, sidewalls, and top portion comprise a rigid material.
