wow, i didnt know declawing was considered so taboo.
my precious little princess kitty is 12 now, and we got her declawed when she was just a baby. (i was only 7 yrs old at the time, so i had nothing to do with it!!) i dont think it has affected her in any way other then she has no claws. i think since she was so little she doesnt even remember ever having claws, or know that she should have them. also i am a vegetarian and have a HUGE soft spot for animals, but i really dont see it as being that bad... i mean, geez, we cut out theyre utereus's and no one complains about that, so whats the diff?? but if you do do it, i think it should be done when they are little so they dont suffer any mental repercussions. i may sound crazy, but what they hey.
