Thanks Lady's Human and Catnapper for your input. I would have thought that lots of people have this furniture because you see so much of it in the stores.

I hadn't thought of the possibility of pulls from the claws. I actually thought it didn't look like that would be a possibility. Hmm.....

Kim (Catnapper) it does look like fur would really cling, but I have one of those great little fur remover thingies (got it at Walmart) where you rub in one direction and it picks up fur and then when you rub in the other direction the fur comes off.

My question now.....does it come in orange or white!? LOL! Only kidding! I guess I will keep it under consideration but it might pay to widen my search. Thanks again!
