I was so happy reading the changes on the new Soft Claw... How the new design helps them stay longer... Yeah, not everything that shines like gold is gold! That might be an enticing change, but I will tell you, for me it was anything but.
I applied a set to Lucky and Hope on 05/29 - that is 2 1/2 months ago! I went to their website, and they advised to cut the tips to break the seal, and they would come off. Not!
I tried to cut them a little more, but how can you judge how far you can go, when you can't see the quick?
Lucky's nails were almost touching her foot pad, so long they were
Today I had to unpleasant task of torturing my baby to take these off - it took me forever... I basically started cutting little by little, peeling the outside of it until it was very thin; I then cut it with a cuticle nipper, and ripped it off. I wasn't able to take one though... Poor baby!
I was amazed to see about 3 THREE layers of shed nails, all glued together!
Lucky is an amazing kitty, that lets me do pretty much anything with her, and this was awful - I can't imagine what I am going to do to take Hope's nails off...
In between this and declawing, of course I recommend this 100x over; but I personally will not use it again... IMO you need to be VERY diligent with these - there was a member who posted a calendar here; something like that would be helpful.
Anyway, anybody here with the same problem?
