ArbitraryC posted:Literally all of the people "Defending" declawing cats agree with that sentiment you retard. The reality is that plenty of irresponsible people let their cats breed and plenty of other irresponsible people adopt those kittens from their friends and friends of friends and by the time the cat has grown up and started messing with their furniture the prospects of future adoptions are incredibly bad so these people who shouldn't have cats in the first place but would be willing to keep taking care of them if they were declawed create a situation where the options are a: declaw the cat, b: shelter the cat until it gets euthanized, c: dump the cat in a box on the street. if you outlaw declawing you're just gonna get more b, and c, there are simply no good answers when it hits that point. I'd rather declaw a cat than read this post and I'm not a vet

Don't declaw your cat. All it takes is living with one that wasn't declawed and you're like wow, we used to do hosed up things to your paws before. Don't even consider it.

I haven't declawed my cat and he's enclawed my furniture quite a bit, however, this is only anecdotal evidence PERIOD.

Mange Mite posted:So i should feel bad about cutting the cat's nuts off and turning it into a fat lame pussy too? yeah but that is more necessary. declawing is frivolous cruelty. i cant convince you man, you either have empathy for animals or you dont. most people dont. I know im in the minority on this.

Seriously people just trim their nails and bribe them its not hard and it saves you about $250. Don't spend more money on cats than you have to. They don't even speak English.

Mange Mite posted:How is it cruel? declawing is usually done to cats when they are older(unless i am mistaken). spaying/neutering is ideally done when they are kittens still. something has to be done for population control reasons, but having your cats paws mutilated because you want to protect your nice couch? its mean selfish nonsense. in my opinion.

Declawing a cat is a waste of money just like teeth whitening and anal bleaching.

So it would be ok if we did it to kittens? I mean i had my dick mutilated for cosmetic reasons as an infant and i really don't notice or care

Mange Mite posted:So it would be ok if we did it to kittens? Declawing cats isn't as directly necesary as preventing them from making more strays. It's mostly a convenience factor for the owners for a pretty big hit to quality of life for the cat itself, if all you're concerned about is your furniture then there are non surgical options like softpaws that are a bit more annoying for you to maintain but a lot better for the cat. I don't think declawing should be outlawed for reasons I've already mentioned itt but it's still something that should be frowned upon and avoided when possible. Declawing should be pretty much the last resort before abandonment, if you actually care about the cat and are willing to put in a bit of effort there are far better options available.

Mange Mite posted:I don't think that's how they do it though well they would use their claws to grab hold of them when pouncing ... they also use it to grab birds who swoop them? without claws, this cannot be done as the cat has not evolved thumbs yet therefore its dexterity minus claws is quite poor.
