   Without their claws, they're almost totally helpless.

   Cats need their claws always...besides, I'm used to them, and the teeth too   
   because I often play with cats very passionately, and they do with me   
   too...and the next thing I know, much later because I never seem to notice   
   it when it's happening, I've got bite punctures and I even raised a cat off   
   the ground while playing and only then noticed that it was because his claws   
   were imbedded in my arm ;)   
      
   I just Love cats, of any size, so I'd really have to be careful if I was   
   playing with a lion or tiger ;)
