22. Well, my kitty is mean and does claw me on purpose.

But when it comes to my things, she's really pretty good as long as her cardboard scratcher is fresh. But, like your kitty, she doesn't retract her claws very well and clipping them is just not going to happen.

I would love to be able to afford a nice cotton quilt with maybe thread embroidery but alas, those cost big bucks.
