Your cat scratches the carpet on the stairs because that is the kind of surface cats love to scratch on. Soft paws are not a solution; they are uncomfortable for your cat, because she scratches, not to scratch, but to loosen the cuticles at the base of the claw, which bind and are uncomfortable as the claws grow. Soft paws will prevent her from loosening these the cuticles and will cause permanent discomfort, though no pain. It is possible that if you replace your rough carpet with poofy-woofy carpet the cat will not scratch, but you won't know that until and unless you do it. Why don't you invest in a really rough, good, sisal scratching post. Rub it well with catnip, and put it right by the stairs. Temporarily cover the step she scratches with ribbed vinyl step pads -- just for the week or so that it would take to re-direct her scratching behavior. Once she is weaned to the scratching post, you can pick out a carpet you like for your stairs. Do you trim her claws? Because just clipping the points off the tips of her front claws once a week will make it harder for her to penetrate fabric -- or your skin -- when she scratches or play-smacks.

Low carpet, a burber. Or is it berber. Not sure how you spell it and spell check was no help.
