I have been thinking about the Kipling Whiskey that you have recommended to go on the Donovan. Went and checked out the Kipling in a store in SF and the Java really shows every little nick and scratch.

Is the Whiskey more forgiving and does it have any mottling in it that make it look country or moor masculine? They Java does not have any variations and I like that.

I am afraid with the dog and cat, especially after all of my 3 cushions of the Chancellor sofa were scratched up in the 1 st week, because WInki was scatching in a circle making his bed.

I noted that the Caress does not scatch easily, but I did not like any of the colors I ordered and it would be much more expensive as well.

What do you think I should do?
