DOGS have nails. Cats have CLAWS! Trim dog nails if long. Dogs that take daily walks on pavement or similar may wear down their own nails and not need trimming.
Then get a stiff scratching post for kitty (not the lousy cardboard type). Felines maintain their own nails. But if you do not give them a scratching post then they may select pieces of furniture or your drapes as a substitute.
I think I see Monty’s problem;
