There are lots of us who are working hard to end the suffering of cats, namely City The Kitty, The Paw Project, and Dr. Christianne Schelling. Won't you please sign these petitions, to educate authorities that we will no longer accept status quo anymore? It would be lovely if veterinarian groups simply self-administered the decree to cease this surgery, but they aren't listening to us. Is it the MONEY they make from the surgeries? Is it the fact that they would have to acknowledge that they have been WRONG? They promise to DO NO HARM, but performing onychectomy is cruel and can create behavioral issues, such as biting, and litter-box avoidance. No human would accept this procedure on their cat if they knew the true nature of it, either.
Please, add your voice to ours, and tell our governments and veterinarians to STOP!
Thank you,
Vicky

P.S.S. Hope all of you escaped unscathed from the terrible winds that blew around the Mid-West yesterday! We did not; Eastside Cats House has been without power for 24 hours, and the neighbor's tree is leaning against our barn/garage, with live electric wires sandwiched in between. I'll update more tomorrow. Please sign the petitions! Thank YOU!
Declawing is evil. Some here were declawed when they came but our humans would never do that. I am sure glad you are okay.
ReplyDeleteCats need their claws, Brian.
DeleteIt's very evil to do that. We hope you get power back soon. Mom really hates it when we lose ours.
ReplyDeleteCats need their claws, Toby and Leia!
DeleteHope your power is back on soon! We did get high winds but nothing like you did.
ReplyDeleteThanks, we are still waiting...
DeleteOh no! We hope your power is back soon. We never lost ours...thankfully.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we need to think about island life!
DeleteI want to sign the petitions, but every link said problem loading page :( Very sad to see yet another kitty crossing The Bridge.
ReplyDeleteMaybe copy and paste in your browser would work? Thanks!
DeleteThank you so much for sharing, declawing is cruel, painful, unnecessary and unnatural!
ReplyDeleteCats need their claws, Linda!
DeleteWe just heard about the awful winds in your area! We're glad that you all escaped harm!
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting us know about Skootch. :-(
Sad to hear about Angel Skootch. We'll have our power back soon, I'm sure.
DeleteWe can't stand that they do that. It's not right. We had the wind here, but thankfully not quite as bad as you obviously did.
ReplyDeleteCat's need their claws, Cleo! We are so glad to meet you, and that you are blogging! Yay!
DeleteDeclawing should be illegal everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI hope you will get your power back soon!
Cats need their claws, Goro and Niko! You two are the cutest, and I LURV your posts!
