If anyone has any other ideas for something to get a cat to wear

claws trimmed eighteen years ago" isn't an option anymore.


Actually, scratching won't dull a cat's nails. It helps to pull off
the outer sheaths to reveal new sharp claws underneath.

One of the funniest photos I ever saw was a stuffed chair in the home of a
couple of guys in San Francisco who kept a pet lion in their apartment. This
lion had reduced this huge overstuffed chair to unrecognizeablity......It
was nothing but a pile of mixed up springs, wood and chair stuffing.....:^)
