What are you opinions regarding this hot-topic among feline owners? I'm sure no one likes to have their authentic sofa inherited from grandma used as a giant scratching post but at the same time many regard this as a rather extreme measure. I lean toward the latter but how do all of you feel? No flaming here, let's just share our view points and reasoning. Be respectful, I know people get very compassionate over this topic. We love our cats, after all!
