Hi everyone,
I was wondering about clipping claws. I don't clip Autumn's, she is really good about only scratching on her posts, and she rarely scratches me (if she does it is usually my fault for iniating rough play). I also like how it looks when the claws are left long.
My question is: are there any health benifits to clipping the nails? Like I said I like them long, but if there is a reason to cut (besides minimizing scratching) I will clip if I have too. She has a scatching post,and goes outside on occasion where she will scratch trees and such to keep the length down a bit.
