Is Velvet Cat Friendly

Velvet. If you’re looking for a high-maintenance fabric, then velvet is what you want. Your soft velvet-upholstered sofa or chaise lounge will act like a magnet, attracting dog and cat hair, even if your pet is across the room. Yes, velvet does exude sophistication and class.

What fabrics do cats not scratch?

  • Microfiber.
  • Faux suede.
  • Denim.
  • Synthetic polyester, rayon, nylon or acrylic.

How do you get cat scratches out of velvet?

Brush the marks with a stiff, natural-bristle clothes brush using short back-and-forth strokes. Be gentle to avoid further scratching the upholstery. This helps to bring the nap of the fabric back up as well as loosen dust, leftover husks, and the scent of your cat’s claws, so you can vacuum it all away.
