My cat frequently claws at the stair carpet, fraying it at either side. He
seems uninterested in anything else we give him to claw at.

Can anyone recommend a way to stop this, perhaps there is something that can
be sprayed on the stairs to stop it.

Thanks.

Tape some aluminium foil to the affected parts while you find a
scratching post that he likes then douse that in catnip. Shouldn't be
more than a few days before he switches over.

The Feliway that Victor mentioned (from what I understand of the
product) is kitty "Valium"; unless he's clawing there from stress I
don't see that doing any good (?)
