I went to try and adopt a cat yesterday at a no kill adoption center,…and they would not approve my application because I said I would declaw the front paws of my new cat. I have had cats my entire life and always declawed them (they were only indoor cats) and ALL my cats have been happy, healthy and well taken care of. Actually I would LOVE to come back in life as one of my pets because they have so much love, toys, food,….I even get pet insurance for each of them. I looked up on my vets website if they perform the declaw surgery and this is what they say about it:
"Declaw surgery is a much debated topic in the field of Veterinary medicine, this procedure involves the amputation of the last digit on each of the front toes, a procedure roughly comparable to cutting off your own fingertip at the first joint. The skin is then glued or stitched over the exposed joint, and the recovery process begins. If any one topic is sure to produce a discussion among cat- lovers, it’s declawing. The procedure is widely performed to end scratching and is just as widely vilified. We feel that a declawed kitty is much better off than a homeless one and when it comes to the decision of declawing a destructive kitty over putting it into a shelter, we would much rather perform surgery

However, we do not recommend declawing older, mature cats as they have a prolonged healing time after the procedure as apposed to younger patients. We also do not recommend all-four-paw declaws as these patients have a much more difficult recovery. All of our declaw procedures are performed using a laser. In this surgery, a laser rather than a scalpel blade is used to disarticulate the third toe bone. Advantages of laser surgery include virtually no bleeding (during surgery), less post-operative pain, and in many cases, no bandages."

I totally agree with what they say. I think people who are against declawing are crazy. I mean…they are okay with a surgery that "cuts off their balls"…and that is not considered cruel as well?
It IS painful for the cat IF they were awake when it was done…but they are asleep as with any surgery. They have some pain for a few weeks and then they are fine the rest of there life. I have seen SO many people give away cats because they did not like their furniture being torn up.What is worse….animals in shelters or being "put down" because of lack of homes or somebody who wants to get a cat but also have nice furniture. The people I know who delcaw are the best cat owners I know because they take care of things…their pets…their children…their furniture.
I NEVER had litter box or biting issues in any cat I got declawed…did not change their personalities at all. Actually because they could no longer scratch each other it helped them get along….so I just do not agree. People who are against it probably dont even have cats.
do you also have a problem with a baby’s ambilical cord being cut at birth? LOL
Do you crazy "anti-claw" people also have a problem with dog’s tails being cut off? Like cocker spaniels?
give me a break…cats are also born with testicles or ovaries for a reason but we happily remove them too. Declawing IS for their benefit…because otherwise a lot of cats would be sent off to shelters because of damage they do to people and furniture.
If they cannot talk then how do YOU know they are in so much pain?
then I guess you are anti claw crazies are also against circumcision. LOL.

Hey all,

What have your experiences been with VPI or Pet Best insurance? I’m trying to decide between them and of course they each say they’re the best. Pet Best says they pay a straight 80% after the deductible while VPI pays on a schedule. What have you expereinced?

I missed the story and I really want to know, it was something about how there are vets that don’t charge for surgeries and stuff, did anyone see it or know about it?

Hi all,
I am about to insure my cat! He is a young tabby (1 1/2 years old). His recent MOT showed him in perfect health. He has his catflap and comes and goes as he pleases.

However, I am lost in the Pet Insurance jungle! I have been told to look for the max. amount per year rather than condition – Axa does a good one. £11 per month. Excess is £50.
Petplan is also good, but more costy.

What insurance do you have? Write the companies down, a few details about your cat, and the pro’s and con’s!
Thank you!
None of the companies that have quoted me have asked whether he is an indoor or outdoor cat. Outdoor cats are at higher risks for accidents or injury, whereas indoor cats are at higher risks for long term illness.
I hear ya, Honey Bee! I too, have considered this – back and forth. But there is still that ”what if” something would happen too soon (hit by car etc) – then £24 in my savings wouldn’t go very far! Long term, yes, short term? Don’t know!! I totally see your point though.

Ok we had two kittens from the blue cross (re-homing center) on saturday one of the kittens appeared unwell from the off sneezing and a stuffy noise, we rang the blue cross who said this could be a little stress from being moved to a new environment.
5 days later, she looks terrible her eyes are running, she sneezes every 30 seconds and her face appears swollen, i have made a veterinary appointment but it is not till saturday (2 days away) she is still eating and drinking.
Should i be worried.
I can get her in another vet today possibly but i would have to pay (its free to take her to the bluecross) i will pay if this is something serious so please don’t think im a irresponsible pet owner x
Also i have pet insurance which we purchased on saturday but we cannot claim until 9 days after ??
also both kittens have had their immunizations
