Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Unfortunately no. I would keep her nails trimmed, cutting them every 2-3 weeks. You can cover your bed with a blanket to protect your good bed cover. And you can apply nail caps. Other options is to keep her off the bed with noise deterrents. Kneading is a natural behavior for cats. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/soft-claws-clear-cat-nail-caps I wish you the best!

It may be that they don't like the scratching post. Cats can be picking about a lot of things, and scratching post is one of those things. Some cats like a vertical one where they can stretch out their spine fully, it should be solid and not wobbly, and some do seem to like ones that have carpet covering on it. I'd also recommend one that has levels for them to sleep on, so they can claim it as their own. The furniture they scratch one, such as your bed and sofa, they also sleep on, so they should have a scratching post that allows them to sleep on it, thus claiming it as theirs. To entice them to use it, I would try dangling a toy over it to get them interested in, and praise them and give them treats when they use it. To keep them from scratching your bed and sofa, you can get Soft Paws. These are caps that you can glue onto your cat's nails to prevent them from scratching on things. You can get them online or in pet stores, and they come in a variety of colors.

Urinating and defecation out of the litter box are commonly cause by feline stress. True, sometimes it can be cause by too little social interaction, but it could also be cause by myriad other things. You may consider supplements like Feliway ( http://m.pet-supplies.drsfostersmith.com/search?w=feliway%20for%20cats ) or Hill’s c/d stress ( http://m.pet-supplies.drsfostersmith.com/search?w=C%2Fd+stress ). Here is a great article to look over: http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=633

SI am sorry to hear about your concern for Sadie. Some cats are very sensitive to change and it can cause anxiety which then leads to inappropriate urination. This is possibly what is happening with Sadie. You can try a calming pheremone product called Feliway, either sprayed on the bed or in a diffuser https://www.feliway.com/us and a calming supplement like Zylkene or Composure (available online) to see if this helps her.
