Good luck with all the upcoming remodeling you have planned, sounds like it's going to be quite busy. As for Clarisse, what about seeing if your vet has something you could give her a little bit before you would do the soft paws to calm her down a bit. Since I don't think you have to replace them very often, maybe that would help calm her enough to get them on. Or, does your vets office do them? They'd probably be better at trying to restrain her for the time it would take to get them on. Then you could pick her up from the nasty people messing with her feet and be the good guy. :)<br />Suestitcherwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11795367484568298951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534635489693943580.post-45952403175304887622009-04-14T22:28:00.000-04:002009-04-14T22:28:00.000-04:00Happy remodeling Lynn!

We did some major updating a few years ago and now I'm seeing the need to start a new round. :)<br /><br />CdC will be finished by your next update!

CdC is looking beautiful, I can't wait to see the finished piece in person. Can you let me know your schedule for May? I'm hoping to host a weekend and want to make sure that you can come, I haven't seen you forever and I miss that sunny smile!Rebel In Ontariohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08898426309114426885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534635489693943580.post-46120898265348630602009-04-14T15:05:00.000-04:002009-04-14T15:05:00.000-04:00I'm very much against declawing, especially knowin...I'm very much against declawing, especially knowing what it entails, so good for you for giving the Soft Paws a shot. <br /><br />We used them our our cat a while back, and it's definitely a two person job. Maybe Bob will be willing to apply the Soft Paws if you hold her? If you can't get your husband to help, see if a friend or neighbor would be willing to give you a hand. If all else fails, call your vet and see if they'd be willing to help out. Even if it costs a few bucks, maybe they can give you some tricks or something to help make it easier. I will say the faster you can get them on, the better off it is for everyone, and it doesn't take long to get the hang of it.<br /><br />You may also only need to do her front paws since I am guessing that's where she's scratching the most. Also, you may need to figure out what kind of scratcher Clarisse is. We had a regular scratching post that our cat would use occasionally, but he was still scratching at the carpet every so often. Out of desparation, we tried a sisal mat on the floor and haven't had a problem since. Apparently, some cats are vertical scratchers and like regular scratching posts, and others, like ours, are horizontal scratchers and prefer a mat. If she's still scratching, try getting her a mat instead of a post.<br /><br />Good luck!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17432778814708875811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534635489693943580.post-49680713876097807392009-04-12T22:13:00.000-04:002009-04-12T22:13:00.000-04:00Nice progress on your stitching!

What a pain, but it does add a nice sparkle to pieces.<BR/><BR/>We went in debt last year totally redoing 2 bathrooms (walls, plumbing, tile, etc.). Cost a pretty penny but it had to be done and was well worth it. Now we have other projects that can't be put off and I can see the bills piling up. Yuck.<BR/><BR/>I absolutely adore cats and I know some people would think I am a monster, but I have declawed 2 cats that we have had. They just caused way too much damage. One cat we have now is declawed, but the other is not, because he is very good about using the scratching post and not the sofa. I hate declawing, but all the cats I have had have been rescues or strays, and they can still have a great life without claws and I have given them a great home with lots of love. I hope you can get the Soft Paws to work.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17101990651665004627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534635489693943580.post-48966514948769654112009-04-12T21:10:00.000-04:002009-04-12T21:10:00.000-04:00Happy Easter, Lynn!Happy Easter, Lynn!Daffycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014712375064249301noreply@blogger.com
