"Soft Paws" are glue on rubber caps for cat claws. They stay on for
months at a time. Cat can try all it wants but won't be able to shred
anything.

At least trim your cat's claws. Ours gets a weekly nail trim. Makes her more
house compatable. Being done each week, she gets quite used to it, doesn't
mind at all, becomes part of grooming. Just to make it even easier for the
cat, it is done when she is just wakened from a sound sleep that way she is
still groggy and has little resistance in her.

I don't think claw trimming really works, but when I used it,
I found covering the cats head with a towel very helpful.
