A Soft Paws Poll

Softpaws

[NoahsMommy]

She was such a good girl! When they brought her back to me, the tech said that she was the best Tortie they've had. Aparently, some torties have something called a "Tortatude".

Here she is, with her pretty, purple nails:



She's posing here:

She looks like she has nail polish on! LOL! Did the rest get their's too?

and the reason I said clear for Basil is who would want to distract from his natural beauty?

Jen, you have said it all for me!

She looks beautiful with her purple nails. Now I really want to get them for Hayley. I would like to put them on her back feet as well. She is really good with her back feet!

Awwww....isn't Noel adorable with her purple knives. The pic where she's posing is so cute.

Can't wait to see the rest of them when they're done.

**raises hand in air** I have a question !!

Maybe this has been asked before and I neglected to see it. When they attach the Soft Paws, how does the cat get up their scratching post. Specifically, if it is a tall cat tree? I guess they would have to jump, since they can't use their nails?



I love the idea of soft paws, but I would worry if you have a tall cat tree and your cat's start playing. Without their nails for grip, they couldn't stabablize themselves and may fall?

[NoahsMommy]

Thanks everyone! Noel already forgot about her new nails.

Russian Blue,
She can still climb....not as good, but she ran up our tall cat tree last night.

HaleyRose,
The three legged cat, Chester, at the vet has all three paws done and he looks great! I think Haley would look pretty with purple.

So far, Oliver and Noel have their's done. We clipped Basie's nails yesterday and we're going to put RED one's on tonight.

Noah get's his on Sunday. Olivia will have her's put on on her "chubby kitty" appointment on the 29th. She get's pink.

Before you do Noah's you should concider doing them in blue. (I know I said red before, but that was when I thought we were going for 5 different colors) I have always found that royal blue looks EXCELLENT on orange kitties.

Jen,
You've read my mind! That's the color I wanted for Noah too. Blue it is!!

Noah: BLUE
Noel: PURPLE
Basil: RED
Olivia: PINK
Oliver: BLUE

Cute?

perfect

I'm getting soft paws for my crew as well. I cannot get them to stop scratching stuf - including my BRAND NEW suitcases!!! However, I think Nutmeg has to have kitten size, and so hers will have to be clear I really wanted her to have red, to match her collar Oh well. I might have to get her done at the vet (she's REALLY horrible about having her paws touched) and all they have is clear, so I can determine her size there

Wish us luck (we will need it!!!! )

You'll do great! It may take all day....doing one at a time...but you'll do great!

We did Basie and I think he may need small...but his back claw (like our thumb) is larger. He may need medium AND small.

I've made appointments to have the first installment done at the vets. I thought about it, and if I don't like the results or the cats hate them, I don't want to have a bunch of kits laying around that are only partly used. Also, that way I can have the vet try a couple sizes and see what fits best. I will let you all know how it goes. Bassett goes in Wednesday, and Tilly and Nutmeg go in on Friday
