Just that particular claw would come off (it it's still there). Right now, we're monitoring her for any sign of infection. If it gets infected, it's straight to the vet. Until then, there is nothing a vet can do, so she's confined to one room with her food, water, litter, and toys. She's moving around well and is grooming the foot and big toe claw area.
I actually doubt that she pulled out more than the external part of the claw that gets shed anyway. My suspicians are that the nail bed is intact because the area itself shows little damage. She's rebounding quickly, too.
However, I've had enough of the problems that this claw has caused her and will be discussing it again with the vet.
Her other claws are all fine, even though she has more than the average cat. They extend properly, retract properly, don't do any harm to her pads or other body parts, and she's good about the clipping of them. There's no reason to remove these.
