  • Patent number: 7207293
    Abstract: The present invention is constructed to specifically protect furniture and building corners from the scratching of cats and to be free standing. The vertical members can be fastened rigidly or hinged. Joining the vertical members with hinges allows for increased versatility, in that, the invention can be used in multiple phases of the cat's development. The present invention, when hinged, has two key positions: 1). upright and angular—which serves to protect the corner of a piece of furniture and 2). upright and monolithic, with the vertical panels back-to-back—which serves as an independent cat scratching post that can be positioned away from furniture.

  • Patent number: 5500793
    Abstract: A computerized, interactive system to search for and identify possible real property equity exchanges involves the establishment of a data field in an electronic data base to enable a user to develop, locate and identify property trade scenarios. A computer is utilized to process data from a plurality of sources, each providing specifics of the owner's exchange desires and the current property's characteristics. The computer reviews trade location desires of the property owner and finds potential trades from the location of other tradable properties. There need not be a direct match or a reciprocal match between two properties for a possible property exchange to be identified. The system allows identification of exchange scenarios involving many different properties, wherein the exchange scenarios can be circular or open ended.
