Definitely worth it - no more scratches!
Giving this a 4 stars because it seems that there were two different sizes mixed in the bag. The smaller size did not fit our 6 lb kitten, but the "larger" of the two sizes in the bag (the size purchased was supposedly small size, so not sure which was which size) fit well. It was easy to put these on and the clear cap made it easy to see the nails/know if it was on correctly. One negative is that you can only use the plastic tips for the glue once, but they provide multiple in the pack. It definitely depends on your kitten/cat if they chew or even allow you to put these one (our kitten was fine with it and never has chewed them).
Yes, I recommend this product.

The Only Way to Be Kind to Your Cat
Absolutely love these. Years ago, we would have our cats declawed, not knowing that it was not a good thing for the cats. We just thought it would keep them out of trouble. Now we are much wiser, but needed to protect out home. Soft Claws to the rescue. It is a personal time for out cat to have "his manicure". It only takes minutes and he's off to the races. This is a very humane way to love your cat.

Glue was dry, cat hates them
I bought these for my kitten because she has a habit of raking people with her back claws when she plays/is held. I can handle scratching and biting, but this was BAD, and I was moving her into a dorm building where she would be interacting with, and possibly hurting, strangers. Both glue containers were completely dry. Petco was nice enough to supply us with new glue.
My kitten doesn't hate having her paws touched. I can extend her claws and play with her feet when she's relaxed with no problems. She HATES these. Every time I put one on she screams like I'm hurting her. I was putting them on in the dorm building and she was meowing so loud I was worried I would be reported for animal abuse. I *feel* like an abuser whenever I have to put these on her. I can't help but feel like I'm hurting her. If you can't handle a cat with claws, I guess you shouldn't have a cat, since declawing is unspeakably cruel, and your cat wil. beat the living daylights out of you if you try to use these.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Good alternative to declawing
I bought 2 boxes of these at my local store to keep new kittens from scratching our leather couch. Both boxes had dried up glue so we had to make an additional trip to buy super glue. They were easy enough to put on (if you have a cooperative kitty) and even my pickiest cat doesnt seem to mind them. They serve the purpose and avoid having to declaw a cat. Would have given more stars if the glue had worked because regular super glue was messy as it did not have a tiny applicator like the one included. Wish the store had had color options so I could see more easily when they fall off.
Yes, I recommend this product.

My 13 year old cat keeps scratching at a tumor on the left outside part of her mouth. Do you think these nail tips might help to keep her from doing as much damage to that area? She has no front claws so I only need them for the back claws.
Can these be used on a 10 week old kitten?
- I would call your vet and ask. I would buy size small if using on a kitten. Need to be careful w the glue!
Helpful?
Will your groomers put these on for my cat? How much would it be just to have his nails trimmed and these applied? I do not want to have my cat declawed? Thank you!
- Declawing has been outlawed in many areas. The claw covers are easy to put on. How long they stay on depends on the cat. I don’t know about the cost to have someone do it as I have always done my own. Only the front claws need to be done.
Helpful?
Would these be effective in preventing a cat from cutting themselves with their claws? My cat has sensitive and delicate skin, and gets scabs easily.
- I have used them with several cats. I have two new kittens and they have them on now. I have my vet put them on as I have trouble doing it. They are very humane. There is no cutting involved. They are soft plastic caps that are glued onto the nails. They were created by a vet. They would not be able to cut themselves with these on.

We have a small 12 /13 pound cat with claws and a small dog about 13 lbs , while the cat is not at all mean she does try to play with dog , the last thing I want is cat to scratch dogs eyes , so the cat stays outside which breaks our hearts, what to do
- These will work for that. However, your cat probably won't hurt your dog. Cats are aware of other animals' pain and will almost always stop before anyone gets hurt.

Can the cat still climb with these on. Mine lives on his multi-level tower and I would not wish to deprive him of that for any selfish reason I might have, such as daring to place my furniture ahead of a living being.
- My kittens still climb with them on. I have the vet put them on and they will last several weeks. When I put them on, they come off easily.

how do you know what size you need?
- It is based on weight. If you select a size, and then scroll down and select "Attributes/Specificatioins" you will get a minimum/maximum weight. Small = 6 to 8 lbs. Medium = 9 to 13 lbs. Large = 14 lbs. and up. I have seen other brands with an Extra Small size for 5 lbs. and under. They may sell these in store in Extra Small in store, I have not checked.

Would you recommend these for an indoor/outdoor cat? She's destroyed my leather furniture and will not use scratching posts or cat towers (we've wasted our money buying them for her). What do you recommend for an indoor/outdoor cat?
- I wouldn't recommend these if you let your cat outside. Cats need their claws to protect themselves! They could get seriously injured by other animals if they are not able to properly defend themselves. If you plan to keep her solely as an indoor cat, these should be fine.

My cat only need this on her back paws, can i save the tube of glue that is included for more than one application? If so what’s the best what to preserve it and also what other alternative glue can I buy if the one included dries out? Thank you!
- Yes, it can be reused. If it dries up, go buy some very cheap glue for fake nails or just super glue, because that's literally what it is. The glue for fake nails even looks the exact same and just has different labels.
