  • It depends on the declawing method.
    If you use nail clipers, or something similar, it is cruel, because their flesh and bone go into their claw. The proper way to declaw a cat is with a special nail file that only sands down the claw without cutting into it. If you do it with clippers, you are being an asshole to your feline master.
    Personally I will not sand my cats claws either, because they need claws to defend themselves and kill things.
    If you decide to declaw them, please use a special cat claw file.

    • They dont mean trimming. They mean surgically removing the claws.
