Welcome Light, our first cat - SDF Chatter

Love the little guy already. He’s been kneading a lot with his claws out since we got him. Any advice on stopping this behavior before he destroys all my furniture and leaves our bodies covered in scratches? He’s gentle but it still hurts.

over-react to being clawed. they learn not to hurt you that way.

This totally worked with our cats - a slightly over-the-top “ow!” and recoiling a bit - then balancing it with extra fussing for clawless kneading.
