Soft Claws are vinyl nail caps that glue on to your pet’s claws, ideal if you’re tired of your feline friend shredding your furniture, clothes or face.
Declawing your pet might not be the ideal choice. As well as being an expensive procedure, declawing actually involves the painful amputation of each of the animal’s toes at the first joint.Buying a scratching post is another option, but that’s won’t necessarily stop your pet from destroying furniture.
Soft Claws vinyl caps fit easily onto the animal’s nails and stay on with adhesive glue. The plastic caps come in different sizes and are available for both dogs and cats. Each set of nails is supposed to stay on for about 4 – 6 weeks, with a pack of 40 vinyl nail caps priced at about $20.
Aside from the reduced damage to your apartment, some pet owners will enjoy the chance to customize their cat or dog’s ‘look’. The vinyl nails come in a wide range of colors and are the closest thing your pet will ever get to a manicure. Soft Claws are easy to apply and the adhesive is non-toxic to animals. I put them on my cat, and as far as I can tell, he seems pretty cool with them.
So if Fluffy is tearing your life to shreds, consider Soft Claws as a safe and stylish solution.
