i have two cats thats hate being locked out of my room and when they are they scratch at the carpet so now there is a bald spot under the door.is there any way i can fix this without replacing the carpet on the whole floor?
The size of the iron makes bigger pieces easier to attach; somewhere at least 12 inches by 12 inches is easy, but smaller is trickier.
It is possible to cut out a piece of the carpet and replace it with a piece taken from a closet or something. Or you might have been smart and saved some leftover scraps when it was installed. However, it has to be carfully done and still might show since it may be faded more that the patch. to do the job you would have to by seam tape, and rent a seam iron. cut the patch to fit exactly in the spot you cut out, put seam tape under it and use the iron to melt the glue on the tape. You may also have to stretch the carpet and refasten in the doorway to get out any wrinkles. If you've never worked with carpet, you're probably better to hire it done, but it still would be cheaper than a whole new carpet
Good answers, but what happens then? The cats will scratch at the repair. That's the real problem
