Why Cats Choose the Couch
Cats seek soft, elevated surfaces that feel secure and warm. Couches provide cushioning, familiar human scent, and a vantage point, which explains why a cat in couch position is common in many homes.
How to Protect Your Couch From Cats
Use durable, tightly woven fabrics or add a washable throw blanket. Provide a nearby cat bed or scratching post so your cat has an alternative resting spot.
Safe Comfort for Your Cat on the Couch
Keep cushions in good condition and avoid loose springs or sharp edges. Offer a cozy blanket and rotate scratching surfaces to satisfy natural clawing needs without damaging furniture.
