  • I am extremely against declawing animals, you're condemning your cat to death or horrible injury if they ever get outside and get in a fight.

    Maybe you should have thought more about your responsibility as a pet owner if you'd hurt your cat to save your leather sofa. There are sprays, air fresheners and all kinds of products to discourage marking behaviors. Do you have a scratching post? Is it tall and sturdy enough for your cat to use comfortably? Have you tried any other alternatives or did you just up and decide "wellp, better rip his claws out"

    You should see my leather sofa. However I care more about my living, breathing pets than I do about a few strips of dead cow.

    • 95% of the time, people don't like cats because they scratch. if declawing was not so frowned upon, there would be a lot less cats in shelters, because more people would want to keep them. They would want to give them a forever home because they don't have to worry about the 98% infection rate from a cat scratch. would you rather cats find a good forever home, or have them keep their claws so they can act like savage animals, not just towards threatening entities, but their owners as well.
