How to Care for Your Furniture

I own what was once a beautiful leather sofa. But I also own cats who have proceeded to scratch my beautiful leather sofa in numerous places, sad to say. So I contemplated buying a new sofa (cause I can't let go of my beautiful pets). And in visiting some furniture showrooms, I collected a couple of brochures on furniture care programs that they offer. I thought you might be interested.
