Soft Claws for Cats

Your favorite chair is in shreds, and you and your kids have scratch marks all over your hands and arms. You're thinking the only solution is to have your cat declawed. But before you take that drastic step, consider an alternative such as Soft Paws vinyl nail caps, which allow normal scratching behavior while preventing damage from the cat's claws.

  1. Invented by a Veterinarian

    • Dr. Toby Wexler invented Soft Claws as an alternative to painful declawing surgery.

    False Fingernails for Cats

    • Like false fingernails for humans, Soft Claws are glued on to the cat's nails. As the nails grow, the Soft Claws fall off and need to be replaced.

    Easy to Apply

    • Soft Claws are available in a variety of colors and sizes, and come with application instructions.

    Safe for Cats and Kittens

    • The nail caps are nontoxic and pass easily through the digestive system if swallowed. They're applied with the same adhesive used in many veterinary procedures.

    Damage-Free Scratching

    • Cats wearing Soft Claws can still extend and retract their claws. And they can still stretch and scratch, but since their nails are covered, they won't damage the furniture.

    About Declawing

    • Declawing is more than a "manicure." In declaw surgery, the veterinarian removes the top digits of the cat's toes. Declawing affects a cat's balance and posture, and can cause many more problems than it solves. The United States is one of the few countries where it is not illegal.
