You are not fit to be a cat owner.
Yeah.. my cat’s digits are more important than any freakin couch.
Let em have it.
My 2 year old destroys everything too. It’s just stuff.
Don’t even want to count how many cats we’ve had over the years. I suppose the last three or four we could have left where someone abandoned them right after they were born but we discovered them and brought them home instead. They all get neutered and front claws removed as soon as they are old enough. All have lived to ripe old age and have been well cared for. My life, my cats, my house and my choice. And, by the way, I also spank my grandchildren with a wooden spoon when they misbehave.
