I have bought and used soft paws. They were about $20 and I had to get them from the vet, I think there was about 40 of them in the paks with 2 tubes of the glue. They last about a month to 6 weeks. Giz use to chew and chew on them trying to get them off but without sucess unless it wasn't on her right. You have to trim their claws and I think when they grow out, that is when they come off. BUT, Giz would fight like a tiger, she don't like us touching her nails PERIOD so I would have to catch her asleep and get one on that time, wait a day and get one more on...

I had to break mine from stretching onto my kitchen cabinets and hooking their claws over the door (back feet always on the floor) , scratching the doors up, so I put a kitchen towel over the doors and when they would stretch and hook on, it wouldn't hold them and it would scare them when they fell downward. It only took about 1 week of that and they were broke of that habit and haven't tried it since..

SO, maybe put a thick but light blanket over what they are getting on, leaving just enough on the balance of the weight to hold it where you want it, but when they try to get on it, it falls with them. We all know how kitties get completley embarrassed at stuff like "falling", I bet in a weeks time that habit would be broke too!

I have also had good sucess with the trusty ole spray bottles too.
