"PawsForThought" wrote in message ... From: I took in this feral cat, and scratch-training was effortless. I wonder if they're just looking to throw money at it. My mom adopted a cat that was already declawed. It's hideous. It walks around on these stumps as if it still hurts (maybe it does). It's front paws are so horrible, and every toe is a different length, and the front paws are half the size of the rear. What do they charge for this "procedure," because I'm pretty sure I could do the same job with wire cutters. I think they charge a few hundred dollars. Some of these "kind" vets use dog toenail clippers. Lauren I've heard it's around $350 for the laser tendon surgery and that is supposed to be more expensive than a amputation. You can buy one heck of a cat tree for that kind of money and still afford to have the claws trimmed by the vet or groomer. W |
