also buy her lots of scratching post. you can "train" her to not use her claws against you.

if she use the claw excessively, act like you're REALLY hurt, like "ooooowuch" then back away for a while. this method is by Jackson galaxy, and it works for my cat, she never use her claws 6 months after I adopted her, she still swats me when annoyed but she never use her claws.

unless it's a kitten iirc they don't have much control over their weapons yuet

Let the kitten be a kitten.
But it is a good time to let her learn to be comfortable with your health care.

okay yeah id say hold off on the trimming until shes at least 6 months old, kitty paws are very small and delicate and it might be difficult to trim her nails due to them being tiny

Welcome to cat world.
I almost always have some sort of cat scratch on my hand.
I do right now...but they are more punctures.

And lol my cat literally bucks me like a horse when I try to pick him up...at least the first time....he likes to make me earn the right to hold him.

Cut it's claws but be careful with the quick. You don't have to cut them incredibly short. Just enough to leave them duller.

I am wired as a Cat person.
But I do like Dogs...I just wouldn't never have the time for one.
They freak out if they don't see you in hours.

My cats have always been declawed.

They're strictly indoors, and they have all been perfectly happy. Never any negative side effects.

I don't share the sentiment that it's cruel. You give them a lifetime of happiness and comfort in exchange. It's a fair trade imo

its cruel and illegal in many places for a reason. How about we remove all your fingers up till the first joint and see how you like it.

I would take her to a vet to get the nails trimmed and ask for pointers and observe how they do it. They have a lot of feeling in their claws and if you're inexperienced even if your intentions are good, you can still accidentally cause a lot of discomfort and pain. Also just keep some kind of cloth you can tie around your arm. They don't realize that they are cutting you as hard as they do lol

I concur with letting a vet handle nail trimming (at the very least until you're confident you won't hurt your cat doing it yourself). You will feel terrible if you fuck it up and your cat won't be too trusting for a while either.

They sell cat claw/nail caps which are... ok. I like the idea a lot, but our cat pulls them off quite frequently so it's a bit of a pain. She usually has lost a few within a week. They are relatively cheap, but it can add up and be a little annoying having to replace them all the time. That said, even if your cat is an angel you still don't want to leave them on past 6 weeks or so since obviously their nails will continue to grow.

If you do try the caps, I'd recommend an easy to spot color as you will inevitably start seeing them take refuge on the floor throughout your home.

Yes its cruel and illegal in many places for a reason. How would you like your fingers all cut off till the first joint? As thats basically what it is.

Declawing traditionally involves the amputation of the last bone of each toe. If performed on a human being, it would be like cutting off each finger at the last knuckle.

Literally illegal in most places because of how cruel it is and your cruel for getting it done.

If hes 6 months then hes just still in play mode. He will scratch you less over time. But get a few scratching posts around and some toys. Theres also a scratching carpet type thing I got off Amazon that my cats love. He will grow out of it over time and scratch you less. Mine are 6 now and never scratch anyone. Even when my baby is pulling their tails lol

Up to you I guess but it's the human equivalent of chopping off your fingers and toes at the last knuckle...

Also, cats use their claws to better hold the ground so they can stretch when stiff.

I don't understand why anybody would buy specialized nail clippers for cats. I use my regular clippers and I've never hurt her once.

Obviously declawing should be illegal and the people who do it should go to prison for animal cruelty.

i would much rather have a vet trim her nails for money much more than the cost of declaw.

that's why i pay the vet 20$ to clip my dogs nails when needed.

a cat in my future is likely after a grieving period if my dog dies.
