| Re: Is declawing wrong??
I had a cat a few years ago that could not retract it's claws, She would run down the hallway and you could hear her coming because her claws would snag the carpet. She would also get stuck in the drapes if she was playing with them. One horrible time we came home to discover that Gizmo, my cat, was hanging by one toe from the string on the blinds, we don't know how long she had been like that but it gave us a scare. I wish that I would have had her declawed as she may have led a more happy life, but she died when she was only 3 from an abscess in her mouth.
I would definatly do it and don't wait to long to make your descisoin because it would be awful if something happened because of the poor cat's calws. But you need to do what you believe is best for your cat. |
