[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will take a week or two for them to adjust and stop being so skittish. You can trim the claws with nail scissors just be careful not to cut too much. Look for the pink area in the nail and avoid cutting close to that, trim the curved end so that the nail is blunted so that they will not scratch you. You can also have a groomer put nail caps on.[b] Declawing is a the option of last resort [/b]and really shouldn't be considered until all other options are exhausted. There can be some pretty serious issues from the declawing procedure. Also, buy a laser pointer, they will chase the red dot and you can tire them out, its fun to watch. [/quote] Declawing should NEVER be an option unless we do you first.[/quote] Declawing the cat is better than killing the cat or abandoning it, which amounts to the same thing. [b] You don't have to agree,[/b] but I have enough cats and don't really want to be in the vet's office on a Sunday crying while they put to sleep the cat/kitten you dumped to get mauled, hit by a car etc. AGAIN. [/quote] I have cats too pp. Why would your choice be between killing your cat or declawing them? Sofas and other belongings can be replaced and are not that important. Cats belong inside so they don't get hit by a car etc. If you can't take care of the cat than take the animal back to where you got it. Or give it to someone who will care for it. Declawing is very painful for cats and you are taking away its natural defenses. Why would you consider it at all? What if they said I'm taking my kid's leg off because I don't want him to run into the street. That's better than death, right? NO! [b]to all those who will say I can't compare a kid to a cat: I am exaggerating to get my point across so no need to point it out.[/b] It isn't my choice. It's someone else's choice and someone else's cat. Some people don't live like you. Not everyone can afford to be a sanctimonious prick. PP YOU are the ASSHOLE in this thread, not me. What do you think we were talking about? My cats? NO! We were talking about Op's cats and everyone EXCEPT you was saying not to de-claw. It has nothing to do with me be sanctimonious. It is cruel and it is wrong. If people don't want their cats to be hit by cars than they do not leave them outside. Go to HELL, pp [/quote] Lol. Sure you aren't a sanctimonious prick?[/quote] Learned a new word, pp and that is all you can say? You have no argument so you call other people pricks. Maybe you know all about pricks because you are the biggest one. Good day, ASSHOLE [/quote] My we're sensitive today ...[/quote]
