Our goal is to educate people and eradicate the practice of declawing cats.
FACTS ABOUT DECLAWING:
* Delcawing is amputation; it is not merely the removal of the claws. To declaw a cat, the veterinarian cuts off the last knuckles of a cat's pay - cutting through bone, tendons, skin and nerves. In a person, it is equivalent to amputating each finger or toe at the last joint.
* Declaw surgery can be an extremely painful with assiciated health risks and complications such as infection or death.
* Declaw surgery can produce permanent lameness, pain or arthritis.
* Declawing is the sam mutilating procedure for house cats or big cats.
