We've been having a small discussion about
sofas on the Animal Fair Facebook page regarding the best material for a couch in a home that has various fur-kids. A little extra web research has come up with this: There is really no perfect answer. :) Some say leather wears well and hair slides off easily, while others say that it shows scratches easily {and if you are Vegan forgetaboutit!}. Microsuede? Fairly easy to get hair off of but nails can leave holes as the fabric is usually thin. Everyone says that textured fabric {which is, of course, what I have} can be difficult to remove hair from and wears badly. I'll have to agree with the hair problem on textured fabric - but we try to keep velour/fleece blankets or covers on the set and that helps with keeping the hair off the couch and they get frequent washings. It was pretty unanimous that a duck or twill wears and takes frequent washings well - especially if it's a slip-covered set. Of course if your kid gets a mani-pedi frequently his or her nails won't be much of a problem and half the battle is won. :)
