Stitches?

[moosmom]

Go to the pet store and get some Bitter Apple spray and spray it on the incision. They hate the taste and it will prevent her from licking the area.

I also had to have her declawed. I did not want to, but it was either that or the pound.

How's that?? Was she doing what comes naturally, scratching??? Did you provide her with a scratching post and show her HOW to use it??? Cats CAN very easily be trained to use a scratching post or box at such an early age, without having to cut off their digits. Furniture IS replaceable!
