I've seen this in an ad on TV a few times. Has anyone tried it? Does it really work or am I wasting my money? I've bought a few things that just do not work the way they show.

pop-----mani or pedi?
Paws
OMG! I had no idea Paws acted like that. I have never dealt with them and had always been lead to believe they were a good organization. Our local Humane Society is not much better. My 90-year-old grandmother began feeding the stray cats near her home and the numbers continued to grow until it got out of control. She called the Humane Society for help and they read her the riot act! She was saving lives! I called a member on the board, who made excuses for the person who was so rude. Eventually they came and rescued all the cats they could trap, but it was not an easy task. It is so sad that these organizations do not help in these situations! Unreal.
dress mani or pedi
!
Pedi. Bath or shower?
Pedi. Beach or skiing??
Let me tell you about my dealings with Paws...
Found a stray mamma dog out of state trying to find food in a grocery parking lot. I went and bought 4 big cans of food for the dog and food for my cats back home. The dog ate it all and some of the other food. Got home, called several places in Chattanooga asking could they please check on her and find her puppies, not to leave them. I was told to call Paws there- did and I told the woman my heart was breaking having to leave the dog. She said MINES NOT and hung the phone up on me. I was shocked!!!

I got a gift certificate for a mani, pedi, and
facial. My "other" mother knows if she gives me money I won't spend it on myself. I also got a $300.00 gift card to my father's grocery store. I know that doesn't sound like a lot since he ownes the store, but he has to pay for it. All cards have to be accounted for by their accountant. Can't wait to go to the store and buy a couple of things that I usually won't.
It took us about 2 hours for mani/pedi and that was WITH an appt. nm

soft paws - yes they work :)
Hi,
I moved recently, and we brought my daughter's cat with us. There was no way we could do anything else with him. He is an older cat, and they have grown up together. We moved into a beautiful home, but there was no way I could bring myself to declaw him, especially at his age. It just wasn't an option. So, we researched what we could do for him, and we opted to "try" the Soft Paws. Well, they have been a godsend for us.
Some advice - you do have to clip their nails before putting the paws on, so you need a good clippers and need to be very careful for the vein that runs through the claw. If you are not comfortable trimming their nails, of course you could get it done professionally. The plastic covers slip on and are glued over the clipped nails. You do need to be very careful to get the proper size. They go by weight, and my cat actually needed the large - he didn't meet the weight, but he is a bigger cat, and his feet are just bigger :P. If they are too small, they come off very easily, and I think they are uncomfortable for the cat. Also, they do need to be replaced about every 2 months - they fall off eventually as the nail grows out, and you need to repeat the process. We find that it is worth it though, even with the little nail caps laying around on the floor occasionally! :P
My "furkid" adapted very well to the soft paws... so I would definitely consider them as an option. Hope this helped! :D
I love this cats will wrap you around their paws,
mine already have me like that. Did not take long. That was a really cute quote! I call them my furkids, 3 of those babies. Hubby asking me how old they have to be before I quit calling them babies- the answer is never!
Sticky paws works great!
We also got all brand new living room furniture last year, and we have 3 cats. We went to Petco (you can get it at any pet store), and they have a product called Sticky Paws. It is a double-sided clear tape that you put on the edges of the furniture, where cats tend to scratch the most, and when they go to scratch, they hate the sticky feeling on their paws and never go near it again! We have been using it for a year since we got our furniture, and our cats haven't once tried to scratch it since putting the sticky paws on!
Claw covers and sticky paws
I have Stick Paws on my furniture, and it works great. You can get it at any pet store.
I agree, mani-pedi! But that day will be busy, so make an appt if you can. nm
