Flooring

I'm looking for suggestions here. My hall and stair carpet is looking pretty shabby so it needs replaced, but I have 2 cats who tend to claw it. One of the cats is epileptic and when he fits he wets himself (hence the carpet needing replaced). I may be looking for the impossible here, but I'm on a tight budget and need something hardwearing (not necessarily carpet) that will not get easily ruined by the cats. Any ideas? (that don't include getting rid of the cats)

Thanks

That is exactly what I started looking at after I got off here last night Tinks - great minds think alike ;)
I would also suggest a scratching post, maybe in the hall to try and stop one problem !
