I thought about trying to find a home for him and then possible Humane Society if not, but I'm not doing that, but I could see how some people use it as a last resort. I really can't afford to replace the carpet, but I couldn't live with myself taking my cat to the HS. I could see how some people might get put into a bad position and not have a choice though.
Wrap your cat in a towel, pull each paw out one at a time and clip their nails with a nail clipper.

Problem mostly solved.

You'd do that if your cat is entirely an indoor cat, which it should be anyway. Average lifespan of an outdoor cat - 2 years. Average lifespan of an indoor cat - 11 years.
