  • So the cat should be defenceless? Its claws are its weapon. Train it not to claw (already mentioned by someone else). Imagine if someone pulled your nails out without anaesthetic! I'm cringing just thinking about it! Poor cat, leave the claws alone!

      • My cat has scratched me. Your point is? That's its defence - you probably, unknowingly, pissed it off.

      • My cat Lilith bit me in the hand 3 times, I couldn't move it properly for a week. Know what I did? Realised she doesn't like being picked up that way because it scared her and never did it again.

        You are a sad, sad excuse for a human being. There's no humanity in you. This post has made me so angry, I'm usually much more polite...

        • I'm sorry, I was just fucking with you. My cat is happy and safe and I would never declaw her with or without pain killers.

      • You were probably trying to force yourself upon it and it didn't like it. With some cats ( at least until you have fully gained their trust), you have to let them come to you, and then you can play/pet them all you want. But if they are minding their own business and all of a sudden a person is pestering them and they don't want it at that moment, yeah, it's going to scratch you.

        • ^ This! I've had my cat for about 8 years (he was a rescue cat), and he still scratches me on occasion! But then he nudges me and says sorry. ^^
          Cats have their off days, too, OP!
