Lord Dudley Mountcatten is a good cat…. for the most part. When we first adopted him he had an annoying habit of scratching the furniture but my purchase and rapid deployment of a tiny water pistol solved that problem lickety split. His highness does not like to get wet.

Well, it wasn’t swift. But lately, I have to say…. it’s been quite thorough. Instead of scratching the furniture? He’s decided to unravel our Berber carpet one loop at a time.

Every morning I wake up to new section of destruction….

And I have to say, I am not pleased.
Lord Dudley?

He denies everything and points at my husband.
We don’t have a dog… the cat has to blame someone.

I believe Lord Dudley–we know your husband did it!! Now that he doesn’t have the man cave and rock garden to play with he is picking on the carpet until he comes up with a new project to drive you crazy!!!

Since he’ll have to pay for a new one, I rather doubt it.

I feel that my cats have an equal right to redecorate. But I also gave up on having a nice home & furniture long before I moved here!!

We’ve already cleared shelves, window sills and a bookcase… as well as dragged a mismatched ottoman to the living room. He can’t rip up the carpet!

The newbie kittens are clawing a hole into my bathroom floor! There is exposed pressboard (wrong material for a bathroom) and their little claws loving scratching in it!
I had industrial carpet installed in 2 rooms. The cats pulled it off the carpet nails long ago!!
Good luck with your quest!! Can you trim their nails?

I had a rabbit years ago. Cute little bugger chewed every wire and cord he could find.

My cat is also a destroyer. I hate the carpet but there’s no point replacing it because he rips it up or he’s sick on it.
