Shoot, why send it privately? Put it up here for all to see. Name and shame!

Several people told me that after adopting from us, they went to their own vet, and after telling them that the cats will be kept indoors only, the vets said "Oh, you have an option to declaw!" Banfield Health. The group at Petsmart, offers a big special for "kitten health" - all the vaccines, exams, and declawing for a very good price! I wrote to them about declawing; they wrote back with the most ridiculous comments. If anyone would like to see their reply, I'll send it privately. Last year, I was informed that they will no longer cut ears and tails on dogs, because it's purely cosmetic...I wrote to them, asking their policy on declawing since they have made that big leap on no longer mutilating dogs, they might have reconsidered doing it to cats...no reply from them. O always ask people what they would prefer, a few things scratched up or urine-soaked carpets and furniture.....Besides, not all cats grow up to be scratchers...and providing good posts and trimming their nails works well.
