The Clawed Cat Experience - Committed To Claws

A Day in the Life of a Clawed Cat

Baking Biscuits

I make some groggy morning biscuits, before hitting that snooze button. Kneading with my claws is a cozy way to make myself comfortable.

The day officially starts with a full and satisfying stretch from tippy tail to pointy toes.

I don't stop at just a stretch, taking it to the next level. I work the muscles in my toes, paws, legs, and back as I scratch into my post for some morning exercise.

A cat uses its claws to hit a mouse shaped toy that is full of kibble

Working Lunch

My claws give me excellent dexterity when I attack my food puzzle. Even when my prey is pre-processed, my claws are important for manipulating my meal.

A cat runs in a large wheel, like a hamster wheel

Zoomies

I can hit top speed with terrific traction. Whether it's rounding corners or spinning my wheel, a little claw goes a long way.

It's like a trip to the beach, feeling the sand between my toes as I dig in my litter box.

Staking a Claim

That outdoor cat is on MY porch again, but I don't need to spray. I have another way to show him that this is my home. I scratch to leave my pheromone message.

Mani/Pedi

No one does self-care better than us kitties. Today I will condition my claws on vertical sisal, tomorrow I will try some horizontal cardboard. Because I am worth it.

Wrestling Match

My expert grip lets me pin and win. Inside it means triumph over toys, outside it could mean life or death.

A cat lounges in a hammock high in the air.

Lofty Bedtime

After a long day, it feels so good to climb into bed. Emphasis on the word climb. A bed that is elevated gives me a greater sense of security and confidence. My claws take me there.
