That is why you should trim your cat's claws. Especially if the cat never leaves the house.

No. Get a scratching post or two, you shouldn't need to trim them.

You never have cat, do you? Because they will scratch whatever they feels like. Why stick to one pole/board when the whole house is their scratching post? Trim them nail often, it also allow you to play with them without getting injured.

I've actually had a lot of cats. Literally never needed to trim their nails. I guess we've got different ideas on how to look after cats. Each to their own.

I guess you're lucky? It's really nothing to do with "idea", all but one of my 4 cats is actively destroying my sofa no matter what i do, but I mean if you don't mind them destroy your furnitures or have no issue with them scratching something you don't want them to scratch, sure, go for it.

Good for you that you have got cats that actually use scratching poles.
