  As often as she allows - which is to say, not often. She also grows them back so fast.

  She’s got two cat trees she uses but those just seem to file them sharper. I’ll see if I can find an affordable scratch pad

    sharpening is exactly what she is doing, she’s removing old nail layers to reveal the new sharp ones

    walking outside tends to dull cat claws

      Ahh, no chance of that. If I let her outside she’ll pick up fresh fleas and/or abscond

  It might not. I have two, one blunts himself perfectly, the other is pointy as F. Same scratch trees etc never tried cutting them. Best guess is the blunt one spends more time in the tile end of the house, grout.

    @Catfish I've found the secret is to get them when they're still half asleep.

    And just one paw at a time — don't think you'll get all four done in one go.
