| Maybe you should have your fingers cut off too. Declawing a cat is very painful and mean. My cat is not declawed and she and Peanut get along great. She has nevered tried to scratch his eyes out. |

A bonus is they come in different colors. I saw some orange and black ones for Halloween. | |

On a side note, not all cats are violent demons that want to scratch eyes out. My cats have never used their claws on anything by my couch (LOL) and they're really laid back. If a dog starts getting on their nerves they simply move to higher ground where the pup can't get to them. OP: It's good news that the puppy is learning his place. Pups just want to play, play, and then play some more so it will take a while for the cats to adjust. Patience is key for everyone involved. They will work it out amongst themselves & if you're worried about anyone getting hurt (dog or cat) just supervise them... you're probably already watching the pup 24/7 anyway for potty training

| No fighting like cats and dogs in my home! I have always had cats and dogs together. Currently I have Lucky (9 yr. golden retriever), Cozy (18 mo. yorkie), Mika (9yr. Maine Coon), and Tallulah (7yr. maine coon/rescue). Lucky is a push over with everything smaller than him. Cozy will slept next to Lucky or Mika at night. Mika perfers to just slept next to others not play with others. Tallulah adores Lucky she sees him a coos like a pigeon. She is Cozy primary indoor playmate that chase each other. Cozy will bark a Tallulah and she will either run or playfully kick at her. No claws used. My cats and dogs have always gotten along. When ever a new member came into the house they were protected. I find baby gates work the best because then the cat and dog can see each other and met through the gate without the ability to chase. Then the cat can jump the gate if they want to met the puppy/dog and then escape if they wish. My cats have always gotten used to the dogs quickly and vise versa.

| I have had one of my fingers cut off...and it burned, but, it doesn't bother me anymore..and I never said it would happen, I'm saying it could, this lady in the forum probably thought it would never happen either, and since it has, she spoke to her vet, he told her it wasn't like it used to be when they declawed cats..I know if they're outside, they have to have their claws to protect themselves..we had a dog when I was growing up that also had his one eye put out by a cat, do, you not think it would be painful for a dog if it cost him his eye? I never meant to start any problems on this subject, I worry about these little dogs and what could happen to them..and vicki, that was pretty cruel to have said what you said, especially when I did lose a finger, BUT, I survived that Last edited by hha; 10-23-2007 at 12:46 PM. |

| As far as owning a cat, yes, I have owned a cat, 1!!! I don't hate cats, I don't like seeing people being mean to cats..I've had a lot of bad experiences with them..It doesn't matter to me at all, if you have your cats declawed or not..but, as far as saying a dog can live with one eye, yes this is very true, and a cat can live without its claws.. |
