Hi.. I orderd a "peticure" nail filer for my cat.. unfortunatly it will take another 2-4 business weeks to get here.. So temporarilly I'm going to need to clip her nails just a bit.

I was wondering if catnip is an okay thing to give her before I do it. If I just put a little on the floor to calm her down &not look back at nail grooming as a horrible expierience.

I wasn't really sure to put this in "Cat training and behaviour", or "Cat health and nutrition"..

I really want to know if there is anything bad about catnip? My boyfriend is extremly skeptical about getting this. We don't want our cat to be some sort of addict.. I don't want her to have any sort of withdrawls or anything if it's something I start to give her before her weekly bath..

I really just want to know everything you think about catnip. Thanks!

Okay so me and my boyfriend have decided againts using catnip. I would really like to know more about this "Feliway" stuff!

I just use my own nail clippers to trim the tips off my cats claws..

sorry, but just beeing nosy but what is the reason for u to clip ur cat claws?

they use their scratch posts, but taking the tips off helps prevents them getting hooked onto the furniture!

How often do u clip their tips?
I clipped my cat tips once and only calies. When we brought hugo in we thought its better to clip her claws or else she would have killed little hugo

I usually check them on a sunday,
i check them weekly, and trim weekly-fortnightly
the back feet grow alot slower, so they get trimmed monthly, or when the tips get pointed
