Hi all -- Does anyone know how to make a cat stop digging at a carpet? My cat Chopper is about 15 months old. She is spayed but is not declawed. I must admit she has pretty much been as close to an angel as you could want in a cat thus far (no real problems), but suddenly she is digging at my carpet!!
She is digging right where the carpet meets the trim, only near door hinges. Its almost like she's digging to try to "get in" to a room. The catch is, all my doors are always open! She is ripping the carpet up from the where the carpet meets the wall. If she does much more there will be no turning back and the carpet will be ruined. The thing is, I RENT, so I cant just let it go. When I move out of here, my lanlord will make me pay for this (almost brand new) carpet if its all torn up.
Does anyone know how to make a cat stop digging at a carpet? I tried spraying citrus in the areas, and put cinnamon around the doors. (Cinnamon has worked when she chewed cords a little when she was a kitten.)
Help!
