Anyone who would even think about messing with one of my animals,
will be
one sorry SOB. A couple years ago someone shot two of my emus. Just
for the
he'll of it. A male sitting on eggs,and a little female that I was
nursing
back to health. Broke my heart. Offered reward, never found out who
did it.
People drunk, shooting from the road.

looking for them and after I shot them I would sue them for all I

Why do Hunting groups object to spaying and neutering?
Why is there a push by the government and supported by hunting
groups, to eliminate all stray cats by trapping, bowhunting,
firearm
hunting?????

I took a look at the list of countries that do not allow declawing.
Why is the US always behind in this sort of issue?

Our shelter does not allow our cats to be declawed. We tell them
about
declawing , offer free nail clipping at the shelter, or suggest
they
adopt an already declawed cat.
I don't agree with having laws against declawing. I think you
will
just
end up with more cats being dumped in shelters of outside. I think
education is the best way to get people away from declawing.

I never place a rescue cat with a person if they are going to
declaw
- BUT
- I DO offer free nail clipping for the duration for any cats
that I
place in homes (as long as they are local...w/in 1.5 hrs.) for the
life of the cat.
I even have a woman who I turned down for cat adoption - that
adopted from
a shelter later - that asks me to come over once or twice a
month to
clip the cat's nails. She still doesn't understand HOW or WHY
it is
inhumane - even after I explained it to her....but - it really
doesn't matter. She is allowing her cat to keep it's nails a long
as I clip them - so- I'm willing to do that.

Paws come with claws. Period. I once lost a job opportunity
(which came
with a free apartment) because the owner wanted me to declaw. I
told
him:
"Unfortunately for you, it will NEVER happen, because I believe
it's
cruelty to animals."
Needless to say, I never got called for a second interview.
And I'd do it again.
I think I was about 37 at the time. I've always had a big
mouth.....

I would seriously consider declawing very, very seriously- it
is
the most
devastating thing for a cat. Knowing what I do, I would be more
heartbroken doing it to a beloved cat than being without the cat,
trust me. I wonder how a cat would feel if
he/she knew that it had a choice between missing the owner or
having
their paws mutilated? According to Dr. Nicholas Doddman, who
wrote
The Cat that Cried for Help, after declawing surgery, cats feel
such
extreme pain that they either climb the walls of the cage or sit
completely morose and cowering in the corner, something that their
owners will never see. I have a copy of an article written for NY
Times Magazine a few years ago, where a woman writes about
declawing
her older cat because her mother's oriental rug was being
scratched
up. It is one of my hand-out's to adopters - the story is
heartbreaking, and very typical. After the hurricane is over, I
will scan it and post it. It is probably the best I've read,
without going
into the gory details of declawing.

Sorry! This is a 62 email thread in gmail. I don't know how
your email
program organizes stuff. Anyway I did not look at the date.
I've seen cats (especially senior cats) mourn their owners
literally to
death after being given away, and honestly in that case I'd rather
declaw them. Hopefully I will not need to make that choice.

OMG - you are responding to a post from March..I thought that I
was going
crazy and somehow missed a whole thread of talking about
declawing, NOW!
There are also some apartments that allow cats ONLY if they are
declawed.I guess they prefer taking their chances of those cats
peeing everywhere instead of possibly scratching something, and it
would most likely be the tenants' own furniture!
I would rather give my cat away than declaw it - especially
when
it's an
older cat - it's so much harder on them (not that it isn't on
young(er) cats).
There needs to be a lot of education on declawing and what the
psychological/emotional and physical effects can take be. We have
had a few abandoned declawed cats, and I have witnessed almost all
of them...but all the damage had already been done, and what was I
to do
- throw them out or kill them? I found some homes that understood
the ramifications and dealt with the problems as well as they
could.

Keep Cats Indoors
Because if the owner has to go into the nursing home and is
fortunate
enough to find one where they can take their cat, the nursing home
is likely to require declawing.

said, bites are
a
natural defense for declawed cats!
