They also help your cat defend himself against enemy combatants\u2014sometimes real, such as dogs, cats, and other animals\u2014sometimes imagined when your cat is being playful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When nails are too long, they may curl and cut into your pet\u2019s pads, elevating the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/blog\/2019\/01\/pet-grooming-at-animal-medical-hospital\/#more-1209\"> risk for infection<\/a>. Long nails can snag on carpet and fabrics and may tear the nail when your pet tries to free himself. Your cat\u2019s ability to retract its claws can be affected too. Luckily, the team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/about-us\/\">Animal Medical Hospital &amp; Urgent Care<\/a> is here to help cat owners understand when their feline family member\u2019s nails may be too long, and how to help.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"keep-em-short\">Keep Em\u2019 Short&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your cat\u2019s claws are beginning to curl, it is an indication that they are too long. Natural trimming occurs when animals are in regular contact with hard surfaces such as concrete or road pavement. Most indoor cats don\u2019t take long walks that are lengthy enough to keep their claws short. Outdoor cats, however, are more likely to trim their nails on tree trunks, wooden fence posts, or other textured surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"will-scratching-posts-help-to-trim-my-cat-s-nails\"><strong>Will Scratching Posts Help To Trim My Cat\u2019s Nails?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Absolutely! Your cat will instinctively scratch, not just to keep their nails trimmed but to strengthen the muscles that allow them to retract their claws. You can<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/blog\/2021\/02\/all-the-essentials-foundational-training-for-your-kitten\/#more-1657\"> train your kitten<\/a> or your cat to use a scratching post and discourage them from scratching on furniture, drapes, and carpets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes a scratching post attractive to your cat?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Texture:<\/strong> Cats like to tear into a rough surface. It\u2019s how they shed the old nail coverings and wear down their nails. The backside of a carpet swatch is much more attractive and safer for your cat. Remember, if your cat\u2019s nails are too long, they could get caught in the loops of carpet fabric.<\/li><li><strong>Sturdiness: <\/strong>Outdoor cats will claw objects they can put some energy behind, like trees or fence posts. Your cat wants a durable, stationery, unmovable object with enough height so he can get a good scratch on.<\/li><li><strong>Enticements:<\/strong> for kittens, this can include mobiles for playing, and for older cats, add a bit of catnip.<\/li><li><strong>Placement:<\/strong> Try putting a scratching post in one of your cat\u2019s favorite spots in the room.<\/li><li><strong>Encouragement:<\/strong> Training your cat to use a scratching post can be helped with lots of encouragement. Don\u2019t scold your cat if they are scratching on some other surface. Encourage them with words, move them if you have to, and offer treats. That way, your pet knows that it is okay to keep scratching, and they\u2019ll win your favor if they scratch on the post and not the couch!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"should-i-trim-my-cat-s-nails\"><strong>Should I Trim My Cat\u2019s Nails?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can\u2019t get your cat to wear down their nails by scratching, then it\u2019s time to learn how to trim their nails. A cat that is not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/veterinary-services\/behavioral-training.html\">trained<\/a> to tolerate nail trims should be taken to our<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/veterinary-services\/spa-services.html\"> groomers<\/a> at<a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/\"> Animal Medical Hospital<\/a> every ten days or so as recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.animalmedical.net\/staff\/\">Ask us<\/a> about proper nail trim techniques for home care. Before you clip, inspect your cat\u2019s feet and toes for indications that he needs to see us right away.
