While they are declawing the cat just have them rip out your fingernails and toenails.
Cats are some of the best people I know.
Mutilating them because your furniture is more important is so wrong.
I made a scratch setup for my cat. She loves it. She has mutilated it.
I'll bump the hell out of that!
My male cats (one was born feral on the place but WANTED to move indoors, at least part-time, and so he has) still have their claws but they’ve both been neutered.
I went ahead and had it done too, just to get in the spirit of things, as per your advice.
Everybody is happy as can be though we had to get a really big litter box for me.
