Oh, man. My poor kitty has been having the same exact problem.

[alycewilson]

There ought to be a support group or something!

I actually had to set an alarm for every two weeks on my phone so that I'd remember to trim his claws.

[lawchicky]

Aww, poor kitty!

[alycewilson]

It really is very pathetic. I try to make up for it by petting him whenever I'm able.

[medleymisty]

I love this! But then I love cats, so of course I would. :)

I like the phrase "human kitten".

[alycewilson]

My husband and I think that's what Luke thinks of our little one. He's got to have figured out that he's not like a "normal" human.

Awww, what a sweet kitteh! We have four of them, and one of ours is the "self petting" type - just hold you hand up, at whatever height, and he will try to leap up and arch his back into your hand. It's very adorable.

Give Luke extra lovings from me!

[alycewilson]

I will. He is a very affectionate kitty, which is why it's so hard for him. It seems I've always either got my son in my lap or the cat!

I feel for your kitty-- I think ours were rather neglected when our human babies were new. But they hung in there, and eventually got more hands to pet them and more laps to sit in. :)

[alycewilson]

I think that will be the case with our family. Our little guy adores the kitty, and we've been teaching him to be gentle. Occasionally, Luke even allows him to pet him (though only if I'm there, supervising).
