I have two cats with claws, does anyone who owns one of these and their cats have claws, does it work for them, does the cats claw tear up the liners

My cats are declawed. However, using the liner there is little room to put much litter in the pan. I stopped using this box because my cats urinated over the sides which caused a mess.

First, I do not use a liner in the litter pan but I do use a liner in the bottom drawer pan. Not as good as an automatic pan like Petmate XL which is no longer made but much better than a regular litter pan. The plastic in the upper pan is hard and does not scratch easily. It also helps to use spray. I like this pan because it is not hard to clean and after a cats use....dump, the smell is gone. I have multiple cats and use dual power Tidy Cats scoop litter (purple). I have had mine for over a year and it is holding up well.

It's possible. My cat isn't a clawer so we haven't had issues but I can imagine a cat could claw through it.

We have 2 dogs and a cat. The clawguard has stopped all 3 of them from scratching our door. Definately give it a try!

My cats have not put a tear in this screen like my other screens. They do get their claws into the holes and open them up some but you can use your own nails to realign the screen.

My cats love it. Maybe they need their claws trimmed. Make sure they have a place to really scratch like a rope covener cat scratcher that will help to keep them trimmed as well.

Yes, the cats would destroy this. I was looking for a divider to just keeping a cat out of a room that like to claw up the furniture and piss it up. Only lasted 3 days and cat found a way to climb it. Other than that, it was a nice looking divider before the cat got to it. Trading in this cat for a dog.

We have many customers that have used LeatherNu to repair cat damage successfully. However, the extent of the damage you have is an important consideration. If your leather has been shredded pretty good, it may be beyond repair. But if you were able to stop the cat from scratching before the damage became too severe, you will get better results. I hope this helps. Thanks, LeatherNu, LLC

Not that I'm aware of. My cats haven't damaged the cover yet and they have full untrimmed sharp claws.

I am not a vet, but from what I can tell the cats claws aren't truly extended. My cats have been wearing these for several months now, and they don't seem to cause any harm. The cats do try to pull at the covers for the first hour or so after the initial application, but then they forget about them. They run, play, climb, and claw at their scratching posts the same way as without the covers. I think that the claw may grow out a bit, allowing the claw to retract in, fairly rapidly. On my cats, the soft claw covers only the first 2/3 of the claw even when they are freshly applied.

Yes the claws work really well. I bot a new headboard and needed to attach it to my old king bed frame. No issues thanks

The biting comes from a lack of claws. My cat bites when he plays, and it's not a nipping bite. It does seem to calm him down, but I give him his treat at night before bed. I was told it's safe to give the cat 2 if one doesn't work. I haven't needed to. Yet. :-)

We have 2 cats and have had no problems at all. The unit weighs a ton so there is no way they can get under it. However, if they are scratchers you might be concerned about the screens as they go all the way to the floor.

We have cats and their claws will scratch the leather I know. We cover them with blankets when not using them.

I really don't know, my cat has no front claws and it very timid. We have used it 3 times and it is just for short distance. We use it to take our cat to get a trim job about every 4 months We haven' had any problem at this time.The carrier is very nice because the cat can see out of all 4 sides and the top. So their not as closed in as the plastic ones. I hope this was helpful glen PS: It also unfolds and is very easy the store.

Yes, I have, but my cat is definitely not a lightweight and he scratches on the material as well as where the area where he is supposed to scratch. I have to tell you though that my cat absolutely LOVES this thing. The bottom is too small for him - again big cat, 19" long and 16 lbs - but he loves scratching on it and loves sitting in it. My husband, who is usually skeptical of things like this that I buy, is impressed by how much he loves it. We've had this for at least 6 months so it has definitely worth it.

My cats don't use their claws. They jump from level to level. The levels are actually close together and work like stars, despite how it looks in the photo.

I had a ball several years ago that kept going flat. My daughter kept it in her room and insisted that the cats had not poked holes in it. Finally, I took it and looked at it carefully. There were quite a few pinprick holes in it from the cats. So, while I don't think cat claws will burst it, they will definitely poke holes in it and deflate it. (If anyone knows of a brand that is immune to cats sharpening their claws on it, I would love to know about it.)Edited to add: If and when I get another ball, I will definitely not allow it outside of my room (which is a cat/dog free zone).
