I have a silver protector on my tv tray. Like the ones used on ironing boards. It is rectangle. Can't remember where I bought it.

SuzzyQ- one of my kitties does the same thing lol https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images...es/biggrin.png
Cheshirepat- your guy looks just like my Mookie!!!

I have mine on my cutting board and move it sometimes to my ironing board. I haven't seen any damage on either thing. If she is really worried, use one of the items suggested. These wool mats work great. I wonder why no one thought of them years ago.
