Retract these cat claws

An animal welfare charity has warned pet owners not to follow the trend for stick-on nails that makes it look like cats have had their claws painted.

Pictures of people posing with their nails matching their pet’s have been posted on social media. The makers of the claw covers say they stop cats scratching furniture, people and themselves.

But Battersea Dogs and Cats Home warned: ”This could potentially cause more harm than good.”
