Overgrown claws can change the way your cat stands and walks, altering their natural gait. This places extra pressure on the toes, joints, tendons and spine, which over time can contribute to joint pain, arthritis and reduced mobility.
Long claws may also cause slipping on smooth surfaces, painful nail splits, or claws growing into the paw pads — all of which can be uncomfortable and easily avoided with regular trims.
Routine nail care helps support proper posture, balanced movement and long-term joint health, keeping your cat comfortable and confident on their feet at every stage of life 🐾🩷
