Because of the workouts I’ve been doing, I bought some rubber interlocking tiles to put in my living room so I don’t have to worry about sweat getting on the laminate flooring. It also keeps me from jumping and pounding my shoes all over the nice floor.

 

Of course what do you think happened the moment I put it down? KO decided it was a GREAT surface to dig his claws into. After I noticed claw marks in multiple tiles, I decided to do something about it. At first I put bed sheets down, but that’s not only ugly, but a hassle. (And when I came home after work, he dug into the bed sheets anyway…which means he also dug into the tiles…) I was going to get some spray that you use daily, but again, too much work. Solution? Back to soft claws! I have used these before but I stopped for some reason. Maybe because I got rid of the couch that he tore up. Now that all 10 front nails are covered, one will fall off randomly and I’ll have to replace it, but it’ll be easy maintenance as I’ll only have to do one at a time.

They only had mixed colors, unless I wanted clear…which would be too boring. So I went with grey/blue. The only other options was pink with glitter… And since I think KO is going to be the only one that would claw the flooring, I’m not attempting to put the nails on MJ yet.
