claws

Declawing a cat is something awful. Taking away something that is natural to then, that is so necessary for their wellbeing is something that we should avoid as much as possible. Yet, we do understand the struggle of some cat owners with cats that are more feisty than most who always, always scratch their furniture. 

Still, there are other options available for preventing your cat from destroying your furniture outside of declawing them, and this twitter thread by @KikiDoodleTweet that is going viral gives you all of the alternatives- with videos to to support their statements and links to items that you can purchase. 

So, read this thread, get informed, and forward it to anyone who needs to read it as well. 

All of us are a little bit different, that's perfectly normal. The exact same can be said about cats. Some of them can be unique just like us, whether they're cats born with two noses, born as incredibly large kittens that just keep growing, or - as is the case of this adorable viral kitten - if they have double claws. 

It's important to give love to the animals around us even if they're a little bit different, and Ecothyrus on imgurhas definitely done that. We're always happy to hear stories of people adoption senior animals, sick animals or animals with traumas or behavioral issues. These stories are the most heartwarming of all, and we love each and every one of them, including the one about this double-clawed cat. 

One of the cat's most precious assets is his claws or as this subreddit page calls it his "murder mittens".    

When you come to think of it, it actually makes sense- our cute little kitties have actually originated from families of big cats like lions and tigers...

Anyway, this cool group with over 160K members offers a place where cat owners can share photos of their small fur balls with some terrifyingly sweet claws.
