I have two cats who are not declawed (nor will they ever be).
Bitsy loves to chase the cats whenever she has a chance. One of my cats tolerate Bitsy, even to the point of letting her bite on her ear and tail. My other cat wants nothing to do with her.

When the cats have had enough, they will turn around and swat at her with their claws sheathed. The reason I know their claws are sheathed is because I've stuck my hands between them enough times to get Bitsy to stop chewing on the kitties and NOT ONCE have I felt a scratch.

I've had Bitsy for 6 weeks now. In the beginning, she was relentless with the chasing. Now she can actually sit next to them on the couch without chasing them.
