Please don't be upset.

You are right I wasn't getting at you at all, I know you love your beautiful cats. (So do I.)

It just was the normal thing to cat a cat declawed years ago, you didn't understand the procedure, nobody did. Thats why I stuck that statement at the top of a couple of my posts, I didn't mean everyone who had a declawed cat was a monster just that we need to spread the word today.

In fact Cataholic I'm so proud of you. You stood up, admitting you have changed your mind about this subject, in light of more information.

That doesn't make you a hypocritic, it shows what a strong person you are. Weak people refuse to open their eyes to the truth and cling to past opinions pointlessly.

My heart breaks for people who are told by their vets, that it is a simple op etc. with little side effects. I wish the cats could give their side.

The important thing is that we educate people today to stop todays kitties from going though this ordeal. Maybe the USA will make it illegal
