I wonder what would happen if ALL vets quit declawing? Either people who prefer declawing won't get cats or they will just deal with it and the issue of cats being adopted or not because of claws, won't be an issue. This will leave people with these options: accept the claws and teach your cat the proper places to scratch, clip their toe nails, or get Soft Paws. But then again, that might mean putting some effort into owning a Cat and God forbid anyone do that.
