How have the mats held up for any sharp objects? I want to use it for puppies playing on them so they don't slip and easy cleanup but they have claws.

We have one beagle who doesn't really play on them, but we haven't kept him off of them. He walks on them and lays on them often. The mats have a texture to the top anyway, so I think you wouldn't notice scratches too much. It would be easy to spot clean each mat when it got a mess on it too. I say it's worth a try.

My daughter chews on the borders and hasn't been able to rip them yet. Now, if she kept at it, she could do it, but I don't think that puppy claws will destroy them, although they will mark them.

They hold up pretty well but I don't know about claws. I walked on them with high heals and they left a mark. Overall good quality though. I don't think you will find kids matts that hold up to dog claws? Not sure.

We have two and three small dogs. I think they do a great job keeping the floors clean and free from dirt sand and wet dog feet. They wash up nice too. I am very happy with them.

We have two dogs... And we don't let them on the furniture, but of course, they do continue to try - and we haven't had any problems with the fabric ripping. I also have a chaise that has the same fabric on it and no problem with that either. Our dogs are large - so their claws are big and blunt, but not sharp.

The mesh is not thick, but believe me it is durable! I bought this tunnel for my cat that does have claws, even with him playing in it, I've gotten no tears and very few claw holes. I would suggest this product because of its durability.

Hi. Yes. I have a little dog that uses this floating. She has little daggers for claws. I usually can get 2-3 seasons off of one of them. She is eight years old and I have gotten 3 of them over the years for her. She loves them because she doesn't slip on them. I love them because they tend to last a pretty good length of time. Regards,

My cat doesn't scratch on the carpet, so I'm not sure how it would hold up against a cat's claws. But it seems to be pretty decent; like cheap carpet you would find in an apartment. :) As others have said, the whole unit is so well made and sturdy, it would be worth re-carpeting it if the carpet wore out, in my opinion.

My dog uses the bed regularly and tends to use his paws to settle in and dig at it a bit to get it "just right". It hasn't ripped yet several months in. Not sure how sharp your dog's nails are though, but I would guess your pretty safe.

I have 2 kitties and we've had it almost a month. They love this one and a fuzzy one I have. My kitchen chair have a design and I put the handle through it and let it dangle. Always supervised of course. They play for hours. lol. And I always put it away if I'm not home. I'm paranoid of any toys like that.

The plastic seems pretty tough, but it has that brushed fabric feel to it. Cats claws may go through it, but I doubt a dog's claws will - unless they're really determined.

The mat is actually very smooth. It is doubtful if you would suffer any damage. You can barely feel the thin wires on the top but none on the bottom. Maybe the only damages may be from the cat. A lot of people use these for cats on cars tho. I absolutely love my mats. After about 2 weeks you can turn them off and the cats will stay off the car in fear of getting shocked. By the way the shock,(static electricity) is not severe, it is just enough to get their attention

It isn't hard to clean. It's just the tiny holes that might give you a little trouble. My cat had an accident and I was able to clean it up pretty quick. After having said all that, it's the best mat I have ever owned! I push the mat forward under the box and there is little to no tracking for me! I wish you luck!

They probably will rip the mesh over time; my puppies have sharp curved claws like cats and the playpen has lasted the entire 10 weeks of their shenanigans!

I'm not all that familiar with how sharp ferret claws are, but the tape is sturdy and I would think if you put one layer down and then another on top, it would withstand stronger, more determined claws. I only use it for a small dog that sometimes scratches at my wooden door, but it's a simple enough product to apply if you are looking for something easy to at least try for the ferret.

Pretty sturdy material. Never had any lroblem when rocks scraped the bottom and Its not cheap plastic like a pool toy would be. That being said I don't have claws like a dog so im not totally sure how a k9 would do as copilot

I keep my cat's claws trimmed so he probably wouldn't be able to rip it but even if your cat has sharp claws I still don't think it's easily ripped. The material is sturdy and spaced out enough so that a claw could catch in it without tearing. A cat would really have to focus some energy to claw through this.

It's resistant to claws but not to teeth. I Have 2 dogs and they never have popped it with their claws. The material I is pretty thick so you shoils be ok

I also have hardwood floors, and it hasn't scratched them from what I can tell (my dog mainly plays on the carpet with it). It is designed to roll and doesn't have much of an area that would scratch floors.
