Some cats claws simply grow faster or slower than others. I trim the claws of all (or most) of the cats at the shelter where I volunteer. Kittens sometimes need a trim once a week. The adult cats vary. Most of them I do every other week but there are always one or two who don't need it more than once every 3 or 4 weeks. My own cats are the same way. Sometimes I can't keep track of who needs a trim.

I wouldn't worry about it unless she seems to be having other problems like not walking right or showing signs of pain.
