you can use both if you’re good at managing your pet’s resources and making sure it always has enough focus for bites while preventing focus cap with claw.
doing this is what seperates cats and raptors from other pets in terms of raw dps for the hunter
instead of mashing claw whenever i want to focus dump, i find it easier to just alternate between these 2 macros:
/petattack
/petautocastoff Growl
/petautocastoff Claw
and
/petattack
/petautocaston Claw
/petautocastoff Growl
i leave bite toggled on at all times since there’s not really ever a reason to not want to bite when it’s off CD, and just turn claw on and off whenever i see fit
