Pussy Corks

 Stop a painful problem

We have a new kitten and he hasn't yet learned to retract his claws when appropriate. This can be painful.

I propose miniature corks to be stuck on each claw. Obviously, a small amount of engineering work would be needed to make sure they remain in place and can't be eaten if the cat tries to nibble them off. It goes without saying they are non-toxic.

Artisan cork makers around the world will rejoice as the screw-cap induced decline in cork for wine bottles could be offset by hundreds of millions of pussy corks.

       How is this better than the little rubber caps you put on their claws?

       Corks are sustainable compared to rubber and also don't lead the pussy to a life of sordid rubber fetishism.

       I'm envisioning 8th of 7 applying eagerly for a job in the toxicity testing department.

       Quite possibly the funniest, and/or strangest defense of an idea I've ever heard, Or thereabouts.

       Last place i lived was battle royal every night in the cat world and the resident pussy needed sharp wits and sharp claws to survive.   

       Had actually bought those rubber caps - but couldn't bear to actually put them on.

       I could greatly use them for the freaking squirrels that are scratching through anything we put up on the door to make them stop. Make some teeny ones, will ya?
