[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's cruel, why do so many end up living happily ever after? [b]Why would vets continuously push it? [/b]Surely they would stop after personal experience if one or two initial procedures had negative results. Even on this thread there are posts of success. I don't own a cat but I do like cats so it sounds like a good thing if the owners and cat can continue to live together with less stress and mess. Why is it the goal to rehome a destructive cat and continue the misery?[/quote] They don't. The vast majority of vets in the developed world who are not senile and on the verge of retirement agree that it is cruel and inhumane. https://www.aaha.org/about-aaha/aaha-position-statements/declawing/ The American Animal Hospital Association has had a policy opposing it since 2003. Plenty of jurisdictions have banned it. [/quote]
