None of my cats are declawed, and i would never ever consider doing so, even though my lexie is quite destructive with her sharp claws, shes taken out the net curtains, scratched the wallpaper rather badly and holed my velvet curtains, although i find these things distressing and my home is slowly go to the ruin, i love her way too much to do something as inhumane as declawing. Lexie manages to do these little things at nighttime, when all good girls should be fast alseep NOT MY GIRL.
