ouch have the same issue which never was resolved. product purchase was a wood filler.
Wood filler, sand it down when dry, then dust off and stain.
Wood filler or auto body filler.
Using a good wood putty or filler is the first thing. The one thing I would add is how to copy the exact shape and detail. There are small tools used to push into the existing edging to get the exact shape, but I have found laying a piece of plastic wrap over the good trim and pressing a blob of molding clay that will harden onto the trim works really well in two ways.
1. allow it to dry and then cut in into 2 halves. This provides you with a tool to scrape the wood putty into the exact shape you want. When dry, lightly sand and stain or paint.
2. keep it in your shop or tool drawer for the next time you need to repair another 'pet oops'.
Get wood filler, get rid of the pet!
Egads! I had the same problem not only when my daughter came home to live with a cat, and then secretly got another, (not a secret for very long). I also have a dog that chewed on my chair rungs when she was a puppy. I had wood and leather ruined. For the wood, I used wood filler until I could replace the chairs nd then for the leather, well...I never found anything beyond furniture covers. I gave my sofa and loveseat to my college sons, I have an overstuffed leather chair in my front room, with ottoman, which I am just living with and then I had a leather mission-style chair that I have stored in the basement until I recover the cushions and then I plan to sand, stain/paint the wooden part. I would agree, I still have my dog, but my daughter and the two cats moved out and then, she realized the damage the cats could do, and now she no longer has cats.
