Hmm
Hmm. . . I don't even particularly like cats, however, I like them enough to say that declawing is inhumane. And as a former pre-vet student and as a person living with a pre-vet student, I'd have to say don't do it. Think of it as yourself, how would you like to have all of your fingernails removed, and not only that, but also the tip of your finger above that joint amputated too? While not every cat will change behavior or personality, there is a very, very good possibility. And also, it is true that not all cats suffer physical complications, but an overwhelming about do suffer problems post-surgery. I'd work on retraining your cat, and investing in a scratching post; and get some toys with catnip in them to keep your cat amused.
