VICTHY 140pcs Cat Nail Caps, Colorful Pet Cat Soft Claws Nail Covers for Cat Claws with Glue and Applicators Medium Size

Package arrived with the claw covers but missing the glue and applicators. Very disappointed as I cannot use these without the glue and applicators.

Keeping in mind that I am an "experienced" user of claw caps, these are very easy to use and check all of the boxes for ease of application, long wear, glue quality, etc. They seem to be little sturdier than some of the other budget options, where the tips of the caps will sometimes break off. Some suggestions: 1) Your cats claws are probably not all the same size, just like your nails vary from finger to finger. Most of my cat's claws (he is a large male) fit well into Medium caps. Medium is also what this brand recommends for his weight. But I also keep a small set of Small caps on hand because his "pinkies" and dew claws are a little smaller, so a medium is not as snug of a fit. Mixing and matching brands won't make a difference, so you can try a much smaller quantity that will last you a while if you think this applies to your cat. 2) Your cat sheds the outer layer of its claws, just like a shark sheds its teeth. So when you see that he or she has lost a cap, don't just assume that it fell off, if it has a layer of claw still attached to the glue inside - it was shed. That means that you did nothing wrong, the cap and the glue are not bad, your cat is just doing what it is supposed to do. If you do not make a great big chore out of applying your cat's caps, you will have an easy time keeping up with this turnover. Usually, as soon as I notice that my cat has a free nail, I will trim it, and the next time the two of us have a free moment together in the kitchen, that sucker is getting capped. Your cat will have a lot more patience with one or two nails being done than the whole set anyway. 3) I keep my glue and the tip in a baggie in the fridge. I think it really helps. I can usually reuse the tip many times, but other people seem to have a problem with that sometimes, as they have the glue dry inside and need a new one every time. Obviously, avoid leaving a glob of glue in the tip if you can by sucking it back into the glue tube. You also don't have to use the tip necessarily if you don't have one, although this might be easier with bigger claws. 4) You only need a tiny bit of glue. Squeeze a small amount in, then squeeze the cap gently shut between your fingers. This distributes the glue around and you should just be able to see the glue when you are squeezing, not when it is open. What happens if you put too much glue in? Well, you will find out if you get any glue on yourself. It is viciously sticky and it hurts to get off. It will hurt your cat if it gets on its fur and skin and it tries to move its toes or get it off. The less pleasant the experience is for the cat, the harder it will be for everyone. Which brings me to my next point: 5) Treats. My cat is basically completely fine with claw caps being done and just sits there, because he gets ALL OF THE TREATS. He normally doesn't get very many, definitely not an everyday thing at my house. But with claw caps and medicine, I reward his patience generously. 6) Your cat will probably not like getting claw caps the first couple of times, but will get completely used to them. On the other hand, some cats just cannot do it. If you have that kind of cat, don't blame the product, just understand that this is not the right solution in your situation. And don't buy a bulk box of claw caps like this one if you haven't tried it even once.

These work very well. Our cat was a little nervous during the process of 'fitting' them but after a few minutes of playtime only occasionally tried to bite at them... a couple of days later, she's almost completely used to them. They are colourful, quite stylish (especially the glittery colours!) and definitely save furniture and assorted limbs from scratches. The fitting process was relatively straightforward but for us was definitely a 2-person job. We ordered 'Small' but even these were too large so we cut them to size, as per the instructions. The glue can get everywhere so be careful, especially upon first opening the little bottles (keep them upright as the glue is quite runny). All in all, very satisfied...

I got these not because my cat actively destroys my furniture, but because his zoomies are... intense. Ever seen a cat parkour? I have. These were simple to put on, came in fun colors, and the cat cant get them off. Now, I say they were simple, because they were for me. I actively play with my cats feet and trim his nails. I hold him like a baby while he stares at me like I'm committing a sin, but remains still. He did lick at his paws off and on for around five minutes, but I distracted him with a toy and now, for the most part, he's ignored them. He still makes biscuits. Still parkours. Still climbs his cat tree. Worth it. 100%. Also, just look at how fabulous he looks!

If you buy this product I have an important tip!! Trim down the open end of the claw cap so your cat’s claw goes right to the tip. This will bother the cat less and avoid the cat biting off the ends of the claw cap. Cat didn’t love the process of putting on the caps so it was definitely a two person job for me. However, when someone was holding her, the actual application was very easy. Just fill with nail glue and slide on. I was really impressed with the durability of the caps, all of them lasted over a month, and the last three are still hanging on over two months later! The flip side of this is that I’ve no idea how to get the last few off, but they really do stay for as long as it claims - and I’ve got a young, energetic, troublemaking kitty. I think the selection of colours is really cute, my only complaint is that, since I have a polydactyl cat, I’m forced to give her an accent nail. My cat was not bothered at all by the caps once they were all at the correct length, and they’ve effectively saved my furniture, shower curtain, and my arms. It’s also funny because you can hear the caps on the floor so I always know when she’s coming. I’d absolutely recommend these.
