When the cat's claw is extended, the cover pushes on (gently) to the edge of the sheath. Is it OK for the cat's claw to be constantly extended?

the soft paws stayed on my cat for 6 weeks without any ill effects. they are a more humane alternative to declawing.

I don't know. I think it looks that way, but it's not really. My cat's claws look that way for a couple of days. But I really don't know.

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.

It's pretty tough plastic netting with a silicone like coating over it. Our cat isn't terribly claw-y but I don't think she could damage it at all. She loves using just the case with the top zipped off as a bed.

Not without a lot of force and opposable thumbs! I hope that makes sense. It CAN be removed by a human, but a cat is not capable of doing it... we hope... ;)

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.

Yeah, it has tip over protection, but it didn't work on mine. The cat tipped it over, it didn't shut off, over heated & died.

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

Yes. I did not have any problems with my ferel cat bothering the cord. She loved it and we feel it was definitely worth the cost.

There is a distinct click when I sheath the blade. & by far one of the tights hugs on a blade I have. I have turned the knife upside down on mine & shook it several times without it falling out.

No, the feeder has a cover that may be attached to the food chute exit. If the cover is attached the angle of the cover precludes either of our two cats from pushing their paw to manipulate the mechanism. Even without the cover, the length of the chute internally is at least 4 inches to the dispensing mechanism, making paw insertion problematic but not impossible for the cat.

It stays open all by itself! I can't see any type of normal cat play doing anything to hurt it. It seems very well made and I expect it to last for a very long time. Hope that answers your question! If I didn't say so in my review, I highly recommend this product and am very happy that I made the purchase! :)

You have to make sure that the cat's claws are trimmed first and then make sure that the tip is down far enough to really grasp the base of the claw (with claws extended). Also - lots of glue, while messy, is key. Good luck!

There is always a risk of a cat getting hung up in something. My first cat given to me by my Aunt Lennie disappeared and I found her a year later(or what was left of her) hung in a fence row 50 feet from the house. The best way to ensure that the risk is minimized is to keep 2 fingers well under the collar when you put it on. The cat SHOULD be able to pull out of that will some effort. Some collars used to have break away panels but sure enough,they did and the collar was lost. This does not eliminate the possibility but it is about as good as you can do with any collar

The tip of mine bent from putting it back in the sheath too forcefully I guess, it was super irritating but I eventually filed it down almost as good as it was when I first got it.

I don't have cats, but I think if yours still have their claws, they could damage the cover. As you know, once they get a tear started, the rest is history! I have found the cover to be very durable for protecting my bike in a underground parking garage storage area.

There s a black line near the top of the plastic vial. I use scissors to cut straight across and then squeeze the solution between the cat s shoulder blades behind the neck. That s where they are least likely to lick it off. Separate the fur and get it on as much skin as possible.

Make sure it's placed correctly. My cats use the door and I constantly open and close the door to clean it. I am not careful or take good care of it, and so far everything about the door works fine. Is not supposed to get stuck at all. If you keep having problems return the item. It might be a damage.

It's a synthetic material with a mesh- like pattern. Very tiny holes in the material. A cat's claws might get caught and rip the material.
