the declawing for either cat I've had - one growing up as a kid and one I've had for 15 going on 16 years now. Supposedly the laser was not any big deal though when she told me about it last month.

It's the same as amputating from the last knuckle to the tip of a human finger. Barbaric. I don't think most of the people who have it done realize - jnine Jan 6, 09:53
The City of West Hollywood has banned the practice, but I think that was for "pain and suffering" reasons, rather than any graver outcomes. -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 09:49 2
- It's outlawed in some countries for the same reason. -- nm - loosilu Jan 6, 09:50 1
  - Declawing a cat is just terrible. They make something you can put over the nails so can't destory furniture. - Krusty Jan 6, 10:06
if it's no big deal they wouldn't need general. It's still an amputation. -- nm - loosilu Jan 6, 09:45
