Would these gloves protect me if I handle wild/feral cats and kittens?

Yes, I bought them for my granddaughter who is a Vet Tech. They are longer than most and protect you arms.

Most definitely - another reviewer stated that is all he uses them for - because of his statement I purchased mine - really soft and comfortable to wear - covers above my elbow!

I would think so. My dog plays pretty rough when we get going and the most I feel is the equivalent of a sharp pinch.

I have a dragon, and when we bites the gloves while worn it is very padded. But I have a dragon and it does not have fangs, so I'm not sure if it's safe.

Probably not nor do i think any glove would protect you from a circular saw. Gloves are all woven in some manner whether its steel or not and the circular blade would cut through some of them and if not would catch i am sure causing damage to you hand and possibly other parts of your body as it grabbed the glove and pulled you towards the saw. it probably is better protection than without any glove at all but I wouldn't be sticking it in a circular saw to find out.

Sorry ...Could not say for sure....gloves were heavy duty but given as a gift so I have no experience with them on a first hand basis

I've used the gloves as oven mitts, to protect my forearms when I reach way back into the oven. They work perfectly for my purpose. As to sharp objects, I can't say, but they are made of fairly thick suede leather, to prevent burns, and I would imagine it would take a very sharp object, propelled with considerable force, to penetrate them. I wouldn't use them as gauntlets for protection from saber thrusts, or to shuck oysters, however.

I would use regular boxing gloves with a wrap for that, don't feel these would be protective enough

I don't see why not. They are excellent and have served me well. I have been depolyed and seen a number of different gloves used. This is very good quailty and well worth the price.

They are very flexible so I'm not sure they would provide enough protection. The material is much like a thick stretchy winter glove

I would say so. They're really waterproof. The only inconvenient is that if they're getting wet inside they'll stay wet for a long time. I think you can wear a pair of thinner gloves underneath if you often have to take the hand out of the glove.

I was able to protect both of my testicles as well as a 10 ounce kitten. I must admit that the tongues of kittens are very rough and should not be taken lightly into a small enclosure with you r tender bits. I went into a routine 5 finger death punch while fighting off four rabid midgets and suddenly had my ball sack licked, it distracted me to the point of punching myself, repeatedly. Be careful.

Yes, these gloves are very good and will protect your hands almost from anything.

Hmmm, that's not easy to know. Depends on how big your cat's claws are. I have a large male cat (now declawed) who's claws were so big they probably could have punctured a car tire. But my dainty little girl cat's claws are much smaller, and for a cat like that the quilted cover probably would be adequate protection.I can tell you that the cover is NOT very thick, not even as thick as an inexpensive mattress cover. But, it might be worth a try. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Most likely, the elastic netting fits well on my full/queen, not gaps with room to for thick 3" mattress topper and 9" featherbed. I do not know how any product can truly protect against dogs and cats.

Nah doubt it. Not sure what exactly would make any gloves rattle snake proof. These are like canvas gloves with a thin rubber like coating. Probably 1/16 thick material overall. Minimal puncture resistance.

I don't have cats, but I think if yours still have their claws, they could damage the cover. As you know, once they get a tear started, the rest is history! I have found the cover to be very durable for protecting my bike in a underground parking garage storage area.

Yes, they would work, but the bigger issue would be the dye getting underneath the gloves versus permeating through them (they are VERY large).

"Sandeep, I also have these gloves and they are great for all my needs. Keep fingers warm in the coldest weather and I compete with them in shoot competitions which require fast firing, reloading and fire in all conditions, never failed me once. Since they are very thin and stretch comfortably they will probably serve your need very well, however I have not used them for that purpose,yet. Hope this helps, good luck
