Description

The invention relates to the field of arranging the interior of residential premises and can be used to protect the protruding corners of the walls pasted with wallpaper, as well as to protect wooden boxes of interior doorways from aggression of domestic cats.

A device is known for protecting protruding corners of living quarters from cats (see. Information from the Internet Live4fun.ru (600 × 356), protecting corners from cats), containing protective plates mounted on mutually perpendicular planes of walls, covering an angle in height from a horizontal supporting surface not less than the cat’s expected jump in height and in width from the edge of the corner, not less than the width of the cat’s paws of the angle planes.

A disadvantage of the known device is that the protective planes are stationary, made of a hemp rope fixed by a snake, on which the cat jumps and hangs on them. Mentioned protective device spoils the appearance of the interior of the premises.

In addition, the known protective device is unacceptable for installation on wooden boxes of interior doorways.

A device is also known for protecting protruding corners of living quarters from cats (see. Information from the Internet Live4fun.ru (1024 × 711), protecting corners from cats), containing protective plates mounted on mutually perpendicular planes of walls, covering an angle in height from the horizontal reference the surface is not less than the cat’s expected jump in height and in width from the edge of the angle, not less than the width of the cat’s paws of the angle planes.

A disadvantage of the known device is that the protective planes are stationary, made of rectangular plates, covered, for example, with carpet, on which the cat jumps and hangs on them. Mentioned protective device spoils the appearance of the interior of the premises.

In addition, the known protective device is unacceptable for installation on wooden boxes of interior doorways.

The objective of the proposed solution is to expand operational capabilities due to mobility and simplify the design of the device.

This problem is solved in that the device for protecting the protruding corners of living quarters from cats, containing protective plates mounted on mutually perpendicular plane walls, covering an angle not less than the cat’s height in height and not less than the width of the corner edge from the horizontal support surface the width of the cat’s paws to cover the angle planes, the protective plates are made in the form of paper sheets with the upper end of the sheet fixed to the wall plane using, for example, masking tape, and the lower end of the sheet located above the supporting horizontal surface without touching it, on paper sheets along the length from bottom to top vertically, longitudinal parallel cuts are made over the entire width of the sheet, less than the length of the sheet, forming movable petals.

Compared with the known, the proposed device for protecting the protruding corners of living quarters from cats is temporary, it allows you to quickly install or reinstall, depending on the circumstances, in the right place, including wooden boxes of interior doorways.

The figure shows a device for protecting protruding corners of living quarters from cats, a view from the corner.

A device for protecting protruding corners of living quarters from cats contains protective plates 1 and 2 in the form of paper sheets fixed on mutually perpendicular planes of walls 3 and 4, covering an angle of 5, not less than the cat’s height and width in height from the supporting horizontal surface 6 from the edge of angle 5, not less than the width of the paws of the cat covering the planes of angle 5. Protective plates 1 and 2 in the form of paper sheets are fixed by the upper ends of the sheets to the planes of walls 3 and 4 using, for example, masking tape 7. Lower ends of the paper th sheet arranged above the supporting horizontal surface 6, without touching it. On paper sheets along the length from bottom to top, vertical parallel sections are made over the entire width of the sheet, less than the length of the sheet, forming movable petals 8 and 9.

A device for protecting the protruding corners of living quarters from cats works as follows.

Slightly moving the paper petals 8 and 9 from the air moved in the room reduces the cat's concentration of attention at an angle of 5 of the wall. The paper surface of the petals 8 and 9 does not adhere tightly to the planes of the walls 3 and 4 and creates the illusion of a solid surface of the planes of angle 5 and therefore the cat is oriented toward the capture of the paper surface in a jump, releasing its claws to capture this particular surface. The cat's claws grab the paper petals 8 and 9, damaging them, and slide along the main wall, without grabbing the last. Upon landing, the animal is discouraged. Damaged paper petals 8 and 9 are repaired using a masking tape or the entire paper sheet is changed, if there is a lot of damage, by peeling off the masking tape 7 from the planes of walls 3 or 4, followed by the installation of a new sheet. After several unsuccessful attempts, the cat loses interest in this corner. In addition, apparently, the paper petals 8 and 9 create a warning or prohibitive effect on the animal. During this time, it is necessary to organize a regular permanent place in the room with a claw point for sharpening the cat's claws. Over time, the paper device can be removed from the corner. If the animal regains interest in this corner, the device can be temporarily re-installed easily.

On wooden boxes of interior doorways, the device is installed similarly to installation on the planes of walls.

The proposed device is made at home, for example, from old advertising newspapers, which are abundant in every apartment. The device is simple to manufacture, easy to operate, requires no material costs and provides the courage of the animal to cause damage in an inappropriate place.
