Please read this is you are considering Declawing your cat!
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007Most people in the U.S. probably don’t realize this, but declawing a cat is extremely cruel. It is not simply nail removal, but its actually an amputation of the tip of the cat’s “toe.” It’s unnecessary surgery to remove the last joint of his claw. It’s a mutilation and extremely painful.Scratching is a perfectly natural behavior for a cat. When cats scratch they mark their territory, exercise, and just do something that gives them joy. After all, it feels good to scratch! There are humane solutions to save your furniture though such as Soft Paws or training him to use a scratching post. So check out these humane alternatives to an inhumane practice by visiting the sites below. Don’t just take my word on it. Your cat will thank you for it.
