***HDK*** asked:
She doesn’t do it on purpose. In fact, if I am on the floor specifically playing with her she never claws me. It’s when she’s playing with stuff on the floor that she does it. She’ll be playing with things then forget and attack my foot or she’ll attack some crevice in my recliner and get me by accident (that hurts the worst!) She likes to stick her paws in little spaces and claw viciously! Earlier today she was running around and jumping on things and she landed on my lap with all her claws out, ouch! My boyfriend says to use a spray bottle but I don’t know if that’s right.
K, cupcake, I don’t know if some people think de-clawing is okay, but it isn’t. I pretty much ruics a cat’s life. They literally chop the tips of their fingers off. (your probably kidding, but I thought I should mention it)
Just thought I should mention, she isn’t clawing the way cat’s claw a scratching post. She’s very well behaved at sticking to her clawing chair (I happened to have an old chair, okay). It’s just when she gets hyper she attacks things with her claws.
