We had a cat that used to jump onto the screen to be let in. I got so tired
of replacing screens that I decided to cut her front claws off one day.
I didn't get too badly hurt either.
The first time she decided to jump on the screen after that, her back claws
held, her front ones didn't, and she tore the screen out of the door
entirely. OTOH, I would have paid money to have seen it.
It sure was noisy.
