Picked up our new kitten yesterday and he is lovely. Very friendly and confident, which is great. He's only 8 weeks old so still has a lot to learn. Main issue we are having is that he doesn't seem able to keep his claws in when he walks or sits on our lap. He can retract them, so it's not anything physical. He is being played with a lot and he is not scratching out of boredom or aggression, he just constantly puts out his claws as if he can't help himself, and they are SHARP! Dh and I already have 2 pairs of ruined jeans and it's only been a day! I also don't want the kids to be put off by it so I'd like to teach him not to if possible, any suggestions?
