The Carpet
A few owners have a problem with their cat shredding the carpet, even with a convenient scratching post. First, look at the scratching post from a cat’s viewpoint: it’s covered with carpet …. this stuff on the floor has the same feel. Hmmm…. Since it’s less costly to replace the scratching post than the carpeting, try getting a post that is covered with sisal fabric or rope, corrugated cardboard, or carpet turned wrong-way out.
If the cat is always scratching (or worse) at a particular spot in the carpeting, the reason might be due to a strong smell in that one spot – go to the vet or pet store and get an enzymatic cleaner specific for pet smells, then clean it thoroughly.
