I'd agree that your vet seems old school. One of the vets I had to work with was a great vet, but one day I got called into surg. to help with a declaw. I have a strong stomach, but this made me sick. And to make it worse I was on duty later that week when the cat came back in with severely infected paws. It's just a difference of where and when they went to school.
