Nice try, Maria. “Clothed” is an interesting idea. In effect what you need is a part participle used as an adjective, like “clothed” but that has a meaning which is useful in this context. Think of the kind of damage that a cat can do in a house, especially to curtains and carpets and what it uses to do that damage…

Thank you Mr Lawson, I supponed it. I had thought to verbs as “to climb”, “to scratch”, “to tear” but these aren’t well in their form of past participle. Can you help us about the solution? 🙂
ps: meanwhile I’m testing my english. Please, you correct my text 🙂

What do cats use to scratch? Could this also be a verb?

Hi Roberta. Nice try but you need to think again regards the first name…
“Curtains” is good.
“Clod” is close in sound but not ‘long’ enough.
Also, we must have some useful significance!

“Curtains” is good but your pronunciation of the author’s first name is too Italian!
