Hey. Is it cool if my mamma paints my toenails? She says it looks cute, but I think it looks too sissy and I wonder if it's unhealthy for me. Mamma won't go anywhere without painted toenails, but I'm not so sure it's a good idea for me.

      Oh goodie. One more reason to make mamma feel guilty for all the horrible things she does to me. Like not letting me sleep on the sofa anymore.

    Whoa. I definitely wouldn't use the stuff that's for humans on an animal. Not good. If your mamma can find nail polish for dogs (and Kira's testimony aside, I'm pretty positive such a thing exists :) ) then go for it.

      My human knows ofsuch a thing called soft claws...they're these plastic caps that you can glue onto a dog's nails. They come in different colours and don't mess up hardwood floors or carpeting due to a dog's nails.

          actually, i've heard that the soft claws arent bad at all. some vet created them as an alternative to declawing...i didnt know they make them for dogs as well.

          because declawing is such a terrible thing to do!!!

          the soft claws fit over the real claw & stay on for about a month. they come off as the claw grows...

          its a nice idea because the cat doesnt do any damage to furniture, & the human doesnt resort to the declaw proceedure.

              i agree -9, but if it keeps someone from chopping off some poor kitty's toes just because they dont want the couch scratched...then i say UP WITH SOFTCLAWS!

              (actually, i dont think a person that is so worried about their furniture that they'd declaw should even have a pet)

                Amen!

                A couch was sacrificed to my scratchiness when I moved to West Hollywood (outdoor to indoor). After a period of adjustment I've consented to do the scratching-post thing. A small price for my fluffy presence!

                Cuttin' off toes - that's Medieval!

                  my person gets these cardboard boxes that are filled with cardboard and catnip, and my kitties go to town on them. the kitties hafta stay indoors now 'cuz where we live ain't so good for kitties outdoors, and them kitties ain't scratched up the furniture or the carpet! they loves their scratch pads!
                  down with de-clawing!
