You need a really good scratching post (not like the one in the kitten enclosure, but a big one, that a full-sized cat can stretch up on) and some patience. They don't use their claws much on people -- mostly in play and usually very gently. Little claws are more "clawy" than big claws -- they grow out of it. I also use something called "sticky paws" on some furniture corners -- its clear double sided tape -- they don't like the sticky feel on their paws.
Getting a pair of kittehs is a great idea -- that's how we always did it when my sister and I were kids. These days, I only adopt adult cats, because they are so much more difficult to place. Kittehs *always* find a home.

Oh no! What is that Chinese man doing with the knife and the wok?
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Now that depends Sue. Will any images of cats do or are you looking for a specific type of cat? Maybe your interests only extend to cats who are musically gifted or those with a predeliction for junk food...
That might be more difficult.
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

Two words of advice:

Can't view as it's blocked, but from reading the thread it's about cats and cats are the devil reincarnated so I am not missing much. Kittens are somewhat "cool" but they grow into cats and they are not cool.
Gimme mans best friend any day and not one of those lappadoodles or rats masquerading as dogs. A lab, a golden, a shepard, or rotty are my choice
