Arthur uses a scraching post; Luigi uses the sofa, thus the difference. (Yes, Luigi also scratches as tho he still had claws.) The day after his surgery, Luigi walked very tenderly and his paws obviously hurt considerably. But a couple of days later he was fine. It was much less traumatic than having him fixed; I walked it to the vet with my trusting kitty as she asks "Oh, this must be the 8 o'clock castration..." My poor trusting kitty!
