Fashion Statement


Meet Tallulah (you may remember her as Monkey, the tiny kitten Nora and Ann rescued from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina). Today, she is modeling Hot Pink Softclaws. They are striking against her black fur. Tallulah's mom brought her into have her nail tips applied because Tallulah loves to scratch at the sheer curtains. The Softclaws will allow her to exhibit her natural scratching behavior without her sharp nails causing damage to the curtains.

The Softclaws are easy to apply. The cat's front nails are trimmed and the nail tips are applied with an adhesive. As the nail grows, the colored tip falls off (usually one at a time) and the process is repeated. They come in variety of colors and are available at most pet stores or at www.softclaws.com.
