Description of SmartyKat Scratch Not: Ultimate Anti-Scratch Tape for Effective Scratch Deterrence

Scratch deterrent barrier tape. Invisibly protects home furnishings. Safe and effective scratching barrier. Easy to apply and remove. Tape may not be suitable for all surfaces. Not all cats react to Scratch Not Tape. Contains 18 feet of Scratch Not Tape. d. While our products work in deterring some cats from scratching, every cat is different and not all cats will respond the same way. We recommend that cats have an alternate scratching surface available to them as they need to scratch to shed the dead outer layer of their claws and to mark their territory. If they do not have an alternate scratching surface, then they’ll continue to scratch regardless of the tape or spray.

Use it to save your furniture!

My cats love to scratch and always will. I have lost many pieces of furniture that have become her scratching posts but after some recent purchases of expensive furniture I really wish the scratching would stop. That is amazing. You can barely see it when you put it on and cats HATE it. Your paws will immediately cling to it. I only removed part and it was pretty easy. I tried using it on a real leather couch and quickly realized it would ruin it so I only used it on fabric. Cats don't care…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Expensive

Scratch Remedy

When a cat scratches, it leaves a chemical trail in its wake, so it keeps coming back to the same spot. Cats also need to scratch their claws and paws. But it doesn't have to be on furniture. In my experience, sprays are applied or omitted to eliminate scratches in problem areas. The only thing that has helped me so far is putting a scratching post next to the problem area and putting this tape on the problem area. They will switch from furniture to scratching posts very quickly. It also makes…

Pros
  • Great Design
Cons
  • So So

This product goes easy. You must be careful not to tear the tape toward the furniture, as the metal tear-off part is sharp and may pierce or snag on furniture. Furniture details. (I hope this makes sense. First I made it by rolling it onto the furniture and then cutting it.) This product doesn't work because my cat just likes to rip it off. Only 1 in 3 cats does this. So I'm guessing it's not a problem with the product, just my cat. I would be glad if they could make it bittersweet just to…

The product works but is expensive for the amount of tape.

UPDATE IN 1 WEEK: Our cat couldn't scratch tape chairs. Although I didn't see him try, I can see small holes in the tape so I know he tried. Our cat has started scratching both corners/sides of our chairs. I cut off the excess threads as close to the fabric as possible and then applied the Smartykat tape. It was only one night and he didn't bother with the chairs at all. There was just enough tape on the roll to cover the sides of two chairs. It's definitely sticky enough to stay in place for a

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Not sure

My cats stopped scratching furniture

My cats started visibly vomiting a few stains on my furniture so I needed something to get them to stop. I bought a scratching post but they had little to no interest in it. I heard a lot of good things about cat tape so I decided to give it a try. So far this has worked great! I put tape on the spots where cats scratched the most and they stopped scratching them completely there. The only bad thing is that they always find a new place to scratch, but that's not the band's fault. Some of the…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Change your band now!

My very friendly, strict indoor cat didn't have front claws when I adopted her - definitely a plus - but the need to scratch is obviously ingrained in cats because despite having a special scraper, he's always scratching other objects in the house. He's never damaged any of his chosen surfaces, so I'll let him follow his feline instincts. I bought SmartyKat Anti Scratch Tape in hopes that landing on it's sticky texture would stop it from bouncing further onto the bathroom vanity. Despite having

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Poorly thought out
