Re: Suede or Microfiber couches...

I spray leave in conditioner around when things get that bad. Or you could use a dryer sheet on your couch or clothes to cut down on the static

Wow, I never thought of that, DH and I were thinking about buying a microfiber couch because we heard that cats don't like the way they feel.

Soo not true..Our cats love this damn couch. Our little boy has his own spot, where you can pretty much find him at any time of the day.

Great, we thought we had it all figured out Chat Icon!!! Thanks for the head up, I guess we should realize by now it's the cats' house and they just let us live here to be their slaves Chat Icon

Re: Suede or Microfiber couches...

I just ordered mine, waiting for it to come in. I never thought about it getting staticy. Hope this doesn't happen to me. What does everyone use to clean their couch with?

OMG I cant believe you are saying this right now!!!!!!! Ours was just delivered from Macys a week ago and DH and I have been shocking each other with the static non stop! We are wondering if this is because its new - I guess this lasts forever!?!?!??!

i also believe it has to do with where the couch is. Like if your couch is up against the wall or by an outlet the chance of getting shocked is much worse. Does that make sense?
