Well I would like to have sued my kitty for the vandalism she did to my leather couch. Since I was her only resource, it seemed like declawing beat a death sentence at the pound.
I understand the leather couch problem. I HAD to declaw Herb Cat decades ago when our apartment would only accept declawed cats. It really didn’t seem to bother him or slow him down one bit. He went on to murder more birds than any other cat in his 19-year lifetime.
My present cat man has claws and I won’t remove them. Period. He wrecked two chair I liked a lot, but oh well. I discovered that he does not claw microfiber furniture, so that’s what I have and will continue to purchase.
The answer is simply to trim kitty’s toenails from time to time.
Dont get cats if you have to declaw them. Try a fish. Or a turtle they are wonderful pets.
A$$$$es. My actual choice of words is not permitted here.
