Does anyone have their cat's claws clipped? We got home from holiday yesterday to be met by a bloodstained Harry who we presume had stuck a claw in his face while having a scratch - he's got history for this and I had to remove an old claw from his chin once!
We are thinking of getting his claws clipped but I'm not sure whether it's a good idea or not. He hasn't got many teeth (no fangs) and I worry that we're taking away another line of defence. The garden is cat proofed so it shouldn't be a problem but I don't want to take any chances. Also he uses a scratching post and doesn't sharpen up on the furniture so I don't want to upset his delicate paws in case he starts on the sofa!
Thanks in advance for any advice
