When I read #4- remember that I have teeth ... I would add claws! I tried too hard to clip Cassie's one pesky claw on her left foot last night and she let me know she was NOT happy with my doing that.

Which makes me wonder if there should be something about "don't declaw me". Cassie's front paws had already been declawed when I adopted her and I promised the shelter I would not have her back paws declawed. My fur-nephew Milo is not declawed front or back paws. He had to be taught where he could scratch but he has a scratching post and one of those kitty scratchy-boxes that he knows to use. (Sometimes he forgets)

Feed me high-quality food and make sure I have fresh water.
Pet me, love me, and play with me. You are my human and I purr to show you I'm happy that you're with me!
