Thickening of a cat's nail can be caused by various factors such as age, diet, genetics, or underlying health issues. It is important to consult a veterinarian to determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment for your cat's nail condition.

Your cat's nails may be thick due to natural growth patterns, age, diet, genetics, or underlying health conditions. Regular nail trimming and providing appropriate scratching surfaces can help manage thick nails in cats.
The most active growing portion of the nail is the Lunula. The Lunula is the white lower part of your nail closest to your skin.
Sure why not
The nail matrix, located at the base of the nail, is the most active growing region. It is responsible for producing new nail cells, which then push older cells forward, causing the nail to grow.
no
It depends
Probably not
Yes but why would you want to do that?
I have a thick toenail too due to losing the nail as a child from being crush in car seat..when it grew back it was extremely thick and hard to cut..its a normal nail regrowth

actually your toenail can stop growing due to toenail fungus or in some cases ingrown toenails. with the ingrown toenail the nail is actually growing but unfortunately its growing into your toe under the skin. toe nail fungus will cause discoloration and will in some cases cause the nail to completely stop growing. you should see a doctor asap both can require surgery if left untreated
