I say let her do it. She could be doing things that are allot worse. You could possibly get a remnant piece of carpet at a carpet store and hope she would use that? There is scent info on the pads of her paws so she has adopted that spot to leave her scent. Its possible another animals left their scent thee before her and she is trying to cover it. You could buy an oder eliminator and spray the spot that might help.

If you can afford to get rid of your carpet , that would be the best bet , but if you cant , get a cheap scratching post for your cat.

You need to train her to use the scratching post. such as whenever you see her scratching carpet move her to the post.
