100 Ways to love a cat!

I don't know how to do the link thing. Confused
Perhaps this will show the You Tube video.

Failing that, Google will get you there.

Sigmonkey,

Thanks for fixing it for me.

Orguss, I'm a dog guy, so I can't talk to #2.

On the other hand, there ARE 99 other (good)reasons to love a cat Smile

Best,

I didn't see any declawing there, just snipping the sharp ends off. Declawing is a surgical procedure that removes the entire claw, sometimes even the first toe joint. I wouldn't do that either. I do think the claw trimming is more for the owner's benefit than the cat's. Wink

Ever seen a cat get stuck in the carpeting or a window screen? Wink

Pretty sure they are just referring to trimming their claws. A lot of people have them completely declawed as well.

Yep.

Cat's claws grow and they need to "scratch" (actually dig the claws in and pull) to help remove the outer sheath layer and to keep them sharp and shorter.

I have seen cats with "ingrown" claws, that have curled back into the pads and get badly infected.

Trimming them properly, helps keep them shorter and they need less "scratching/clawing".

Most cats can be trained with treats to use posts, and we found the best were natural oak cut in half about 3 feet long and part covered in commercial grade carpet (like used in an office).

Have a whole pack of dogs, so we are catless except for the SFLOL kitties.
