VICTHY140pcs (14 Colors) Cat Nail Caps, Cat Claw Covers Cat Nail Covers with Adhesives and Applicators (Medium)

My cat sept through applying these, took like 10 minutes, it was quick and easy. The colors are perfect and plenty of glue for reapply. My hands are starting to heal from the scratches due to these being soft and great quality. Great quality and value for the money.

Okay let’s admit I was as skeptical as the next person about getting these nail caps but I was at wits end. I had purchased a new rug and my cats thought it was a huge new scratching pad for them. Every time I found carpet fibers pulled loose in spots my patience was growing shorter. I put out scratching posts. I bought couch covers and the corner sticker deterrents. I even tried the citrus juice spray tricks. Nothing worked. As I was sitting debating putting these on their claws the youngest decided he was going to have a go at my rug yet again. I thought I would need help but was surprisingly able to do it all by myself. I would get yourself a towel, paper towels, small pair of scissors, and some finger nails clippers. Once you open the package and decide on your color do a quick slip on test to check the fit for the size of your cats claw. Set out all 10 nail covers for the front paws only on the paper towel. Wrap the cat in the towel to protect yourself unless you have a little angel. Use the nail clippers to slightly trim the end of the cats nails. Don’t worry about taking much length off the nail. Cut the end off the glue adhesive as per the directions provided. You insert the tip of the adhesive into each nail cover as you go. I would do a light squeeze of the adhesive into the nail cover and then pinch each cover to make sure the insides were coated. If you press from the pad on the bottom of the cats paw and lightly on top of each knuckle their nail will fully extend nicely. Then it’s as simple as sliding the cap on and holding it for a minute. The adhesive dries quickly just don’t get it on your fingers or fur. I held my cats for a minute or two after applying to make sure everything stayed well. I will say my cats weren’t sure what to think of the caps at first and fixated on them a bit. I distracted them with some wet food and they were right as rain. The covers are a good thickness and durability. If you have hard wood floors you will hear them click as they walk. They hold up well to them clawing at a scratching post as well. Best of all my couch and rug have been safe so far. Only thing I would note is that if you have a very young kitten 8-9 weeks old, even the extra smalls are too big. Overall I am very happy with my purchase though!

These nail caps really stick! They are great in that regard. But, a few tips for the beginners:1. If the nail caps are a bit large for your cat, trim the tips of the caps, not the base.2. To keep your cat as comfortable as possible, trim the caps as often as you would their nails. If they are too long, it will feel uncomfortable to walk around. It would be like wearing shoes that were smashing your toes back into your foot. This also aids in them popping off when they need to be changed.3. To remove them, carefully use human nail clippers to clip along the ridge of the cap until it becomes thin enough to split or creates a split. Then you can peel them off with little to no issue.4. MAKE SURE THE GLUE HAS TOTALLY SET BEFORE YOUR CAT GOES INTO THE LITTER BOX. If possible, keep them away from the litter box for 30 min. If they happen to step in their mess, the soiled litter will stick to the glue and irritate your cats paws. I learned this the hard way. Luckily, I noticed early enough that no medical attention was needed, but her pads swelled up and became very red. I took the caps off immediately and let her have about a week to tend to her claws. She has cleaned them and the swelling has disappeared. I plan on reapplying caps this weekend.5. Clip your cat's nails before applying caps and make sure that any nail flakes are removed from around the nail before applying. If there are loose layers, they will get stuck in the glue and can apply uncomfortable pressure or poking on the skin at the base of the nail.It's a little bit of a learning curve, but it's worth it! My cats HATE the application process because they don't like the sensation when I push the nail caps on, but I'm sure they will get used to it. They've already gotten better since the first time. But, these caps STICK. Our first set of caps lasted about 6ish weeks, possibly more.
