Yes they lose their teeth when they are younger, but if they don't lose them after a while you need to take them to the vet to be pulled don't try it yourself. Cats should have all their adult teeth by seven or eight months old. However, many cats develop gum diseases by the time they are three or four years old, and some will indeed loose teeth, or have to have them removed to stop infection spreading. As for claws, cats do not naturally lose claws (although the outer layers will shed - which is what keeps a cat's claws sharp). A cat's claws are attached to their toe bones, so are very strong and are not meant to be removed.
