Thanks Jean I'll give it a try.  Lily does the carpet digging thing too & the sofa cushion & dog bed digging - it drives me crazy.  It's like she's trying to dig a hole to China :)   I've never seen a dog do this before.

The best way to break your Chi from chasing cats. Get a squirt
bottle filled with water and when you see your Chi chasing the cat,
squirt her with the water and say in a firm voice "LEAVE IT" at the
same time. She will soon learn those words mean a bath and she will
stop immediately and leave those cats alone. Eventually you will
only have to say "LEAVE IT" and she will stop and look at you to see
if you have that bottle in your hand. I try to squirt mine in the
side not around the head. I have used this method to stop a lot of
bad habits like excessive barking, carpet digging, and sock chewing
(while still on my foot). Try it, it works.
