Kitty Caps Nail Caps for Cats Safe, Stylish & Humane Alternative to Declawing Stops Snags and Scratches, Medium (9-13 lbs), Spring Green with Glitter & Ultra Violet (Pack of 1)

Super cute little kitty manicure, sizing is inconsistent though as I previously bought the same size in a different color and those were larger. Our cat got them off one at a time and ran around with just a few on for a while

These Kitty Caps Nail Caps for Cats are a great idea and after seeing the wonderful reviews, I thought I would give them a try. Although my cat wasn't completely compliant when putting them on (it definitely took two of us!) it really wasn't a terrible job. They looked really cute like she had just had a spa day with a Mani/Pedi. The glue seemed to be very strong and doing the job except apparently it was no match for this girl! She messed with them and chewed on them and one by one they would all fall off and I would find them scattered throughout the house. We kept reapplying nails and even bought this same product several times thinking we would have different results . . . isn't that what they call insanity? LOL Alas, we finally gave up. I wanted to like these so much but I'm happy everyone else likes them.

I like these cat claw caps better than Soft Claws, which were the original claw caps.Soft Paws have ridges inside that are supposed to make them stay on longer. But that doesn't work with my cat. She starts in immediately, trying to work them off and it generally takes her about a week to do so. The instructions on all claw caps say that cats will get used to them and leave them alone but that has never been true with any cats I have had to use these with over the past 20+ years or so.Kitty Caps cost about half as much as Soft Paws and work better for my cat. They're softer, so they're easier to apply. Their sizing is a little different than Soft Paws too, and the Large Kitty Caps fit my cat perfectly, except for the small toe claws. For those, I buy one size smaller. Some people may prefer the Soft Paws, if price isn't a real breaker.I've read where people claim claw caps are cruel for cats. No, they are not. This is a measure that could keep people from getting rid of destructive cats. My cat has tons of toys, a huge cat tree, gobs of play time, full run of a two story house, a dog to annoy, cat tunnels, beds high and low, and several types of cat scratching things— flat, vertical, cardboard, sisal, & carpet— she prefers the stairs & ignores the others. Spray-on deterrents, anti-scratch tape, motion-activated air-sprayers don't work. Claw Caps work. Putting them on used to annoy her, but now— she sits quietly and inspects them afterwards, then goes on with her life. She never chews them around me, but when she gets one off, she leaves it where I can find it.Claw caps do Not prevent claws from retracting. Claws do not recede into the toes. That is a complete misunderstand of how cat claws work. If you use the right size claw cap and apply them correctly, the cats *do* get used to them and walk naturally. They will even claw with them on but the clawing doesn't destroy anything.Claw caps do Not prevent claw growth. Claws grow the same as they would without claw caps. If a cap stays on longer than 4 or 5 weeks, it should be removed and replaced with a new one. We don't have that problem. The longest our cat has let one stay on is 3 weeks.Claw caps should never be used on cats who are allowed outside; they need to be able to defend themselves. But IMO, cats should never be allowed to roam feely outside unless they are in an enclosed space from which they cannot escape.Declawing cats is cruel & most vets will no longer do it. Try claw caps instead.

I put these on my 2 kittens they are about 4 months & 3.5lbs they are super sweet boys but their nails are little needles they also both had eye surgery i feel better letting them battle now i know they will not accidentally hurt each other. I got xs & i feel like they might be a little big for them still idk it is my first time ever using these but it doesn't seem to be bothering them anyways. I seen some comments saying the glue burned but it didnt burn my skin & my cats barley reacted when i was putting them on just annoyed i was touching their paws. so i dont think it burned them. I just spread out wet food on a plate & did it while they were eating. My black cat is a bit nutty but didnt give me too hard a time after he would stop to lick them but left them alone after like 10 minutes. my orange one is super calm & didnt even notice them. They were very easy to put on i only had to redo 3 out of 36 & it's because i didnt put enough glue. the pictures of burned & bald paws scared me but i dont think the glue is supposed to touch their skin just like human nails im pretty sure my finger would be messed up too if a nail tech got nail glue all over my cuticles. nail glue is for nails.. they have no problem putting their nails out & back like normal. Cats are safer babies are safer. Im happy i found these.
