I have three cats: one 7 year old female brown tabby, one 2 year old male orange tabby and a one-year old female Maine Coon mix. They came from cat rescues to us as kittens except for the Maine Coon; we rescued her off the street at 5 weeks old. None of my cats are declawed. We have lots of toys, several scratching posts and clip their claws every 10 days. I never had an issue with them clawing up my furniture etc and we have several leather sofas/recliners
Of course, they hog every scrap of fabric in this house but that is another matter LOL
