They have been decent enough about it, but patience only lasts for so long! My question is, is it legal or ethical or possible to get a cat's claws clipped/removed/something else to avoid my cat doing this? He is a domestic tom, aged 2 years. Thanks, D. Here's a good explination of the proceedure and why so many people dont declaw there cats. Your basicly removing the last digit to remove each claw. http://www.talktothevet.com/ARTICLES...tdeclawing.HTM |

My neighbors cat mysteriously dissapeared after scratching my cars new paint job. I warned them twice to have it declawed, they never listened and it ended up missing. If you want to avoid a lawsuit or your cat dissapearing, my advice is to have it declawed. Don't let the nut-jobs in here tell you any differently there is nothing wrong with declawing.

Yes, there is - declawing removes a cats ability to fight and climb, and
leaves it at the mercy of other animals, which is why its rightly illegial. My neighbors cat mysteriously dissapeared after scratching my cars new paint job. I warned them twice to have it declawed, they never listened and it ended up missing I wonder if you had anything to do with it... "J. Marz" wrote in message om... "David Wright" wrote in message ...

Indeed - someone to be ignored...
Has anyone managed to take a cat for a walk - apparently you can get cat walking leads, which could be useful when you let a cat outside after, say, moving house. However, due to a cats nature I can either see you going around it circles or not moving...
