Many times older cats cannot seem to retract their claws. This may be due to lack of muscle tone that comes with aging.

Claws can be clipped - since the cat is having so many problems he may benfit from a vet exam. I am not sure but there may be some kitty arthritis drugs out there that can be prescribed. Also the vet can help show you how to clip the cat's claws.

Good luck!
