someone suggested those survival blankets -the ones that look like foil. I might give that a whirl by getting a few of them.

What I'm actually afraid of is that the sound of the foil would make him bolt, thereby putting in another scratch/gouge on the leather. *sigh* I think I may just have to admit that my couch is going to have a very short lifespan.

The funny thing about feliway is that I used that quite a bit when he first came here and now assosicates the sound of a spray as something to be afraid of?!
