My wife uses a air cushion on her wheelchair (ROHO). Anyone know of a really strong cover for the cushions?
We need to cat-proof it. We have several cats, all of which have their claws.
Just to clarify, I have surfed the net and found several productions. However, none of them specify that they can stand up to cat claws. I am looking for reccomendations from people that have experience with this.

You could try surfing the net, I’m sure you will get something.
I’ve worked with Rohos and chairs for 15 years. A ‘cat-proof’ cover would be so thick and tough that it would counteract the purpose of the cushion.
The cheapest option would probably be to switch to a less vulnerable cushion. Stimulites (http://www.sportaid.com/catalog/page48a.shtml) or Vicairs (http://www.medifixservices.ie/medifix/main/2006-SS-Vicair-Vector.htm) can accomplish most of the benefits of Rohos, and in many situations, offer better support.
(Note- I REALLY like properly set-up Vicairs.)
