Soft Claws?

[Blueberry]

It's great to hear good things about the Soft Claws. We're currently on kitty #4 (1-3 are all declawed from adoption). I'd rather not declaw new kitty, but she likes a few pieces of furniture (despite several scratch-friendly options available to her). I want to try the Soft Claws before making any major decision about her little toes! She's not too good with nail trimming, so I think she will probably not take to the Soft Claw application process well, but I may try it anyway.

Do the kitties seem to notice that these are on their nails? The website suggests that they are "so comfortable that kitty won't even notice they're there." True?

Mine noticed at first, and then ignored.

I know you don't want opinions on declawing, but I did want to say that it will be much harder on you since your cat didn't "come" that way. It really is a long, painful recovery process, and it will be hard on kitty and you. Our cats still have claws, and have, at times, scratched inappropriate things. We make a giant circle out of tape, and put it up where they are scratching. Their paws get stuck, and the behavior ceases. Has broken our cats of door jambs and chairs.

Good luck!
