I Am Against Cat Declawing

Well I agree I'm totally against cat declawing, I think it's wrong then and I think it's wrong now. Put yourself in a cat's place and try to imagine the pain that they go through, so yeah you get the big picture. Let's end cat declawing...

When I was seven-ish, I cried because my parents had our cat declawed. Over a decade later, I still agree with my seven year old self. It's cruel to declaw cats.

When you think of cats.. one of the things you think of is they scratch. What is a cat without its claws? Don't even bother getting one if all you're going to do it declaw it, that's so cruel.
And you say, "Well I have small children...

When I was a teenager, we had our cat Baxter declawed. At the time, I didn't know how an onychectomy worked - I naively thought it was like clipping claws, but more permanent. What I did know was that Baxter was miserable. Usually a Joe...

cat declawing is so cruel and completely unnatural. scratching is part of a cat's' natural instincts. how would humans like to be de-fingernailed? sound like fun? my cousin had both of her cats declawed so they wouldn't ruin her...

Every since a lad, I always loved cats. 

In 1997, when I got my cat, I didn't know any better.  He was scratching our furniture and we decided to have him declawed.  I regret it at 100%.  Declawing is brutal...

A long time ago, we used to take care of cats that were strays and probably dumped where we lived. There was this one that was grey and was nervous at first. She was declawed in the front, so she couldn't defend herself. Instead, she...

I received a Siamese cat as a gift once and unfortunately she was de-clawed when I received her. She was an indoor cat- had never even been outside- but one day a guest who didn't know any better let her out of the house. We looked...

I worked at the vet for many years and my heart broke everytime someone had their cats declawed.  I mostly wish they could be there when that poor animal woke up from the aneasthetic and the pain hit them.  It is cruel and I...

I think cat declawing is inhumane  in other words mean.

Out of the fact that it's painful, and taking away the Nature of the animal. It's also their protection, how they put their stress away, by scratching. And anyway, it's painful.
You take a cat. respect their Nature. You take any animal...

A friend of mine had her cat declawed and I have never seen such a sad, shocked, outraged kitty in my life. She cried for WEEKS. I'm amazed Vets do this to cats.
Most people do this to save their furniture. I just believe it you decide...
