OUr 3 1/2 yr old female cat will have nothing to do with the scratching post, instead loves to pull at the couch corner or tug on our new carpeting.This is even after having her nails clipped.We can't babysit her all day. We're told she's too old to get declawed, any suggestions??

Some cats like to claw on a horizontal surface, mine love the fallen
tree in the garden for just this reason. We also have an old rug in
the back room that they are free to claw if the want.

A cat without claws is the result of a vet without scruples.
