Fantastic looking - but by golly I couldnt have borne it when it was bad. Are the cats okay with the laminated flooring?

Marmaduke slides around a bit on the wood as he moves so quick, its not so much of an issue for chloe as she's a little slower! We've got a lot of oak in the house all the flooring is oak the staircase is oak and all the internal doors are too, so far no scratching!
