We answered an ad for a cat, and thats how we got Peedoodle. He was already an adult cat, had been neutered and declawed.
My question is, why would people declaw cats? WHen I play with Peedoodle, I find it really unfair that he has no claws and cannot defend himself. He bites pretty hard though. How do vets actually condone this practice? I feel as if it is barbaric because like people say, it is like cutting the top knuckles off your fingers. Before we got Peedoodle, I never knew that a cat could have its claws cut off. When I told my grandfather about Peedoodle and that he had been declawed, his first reaction was 'people who declaw cats should have certain parts of their anatomy cut off!' I feel the same way as he does, seeing firsthand how it can affect a cat. Poor things.
SOmeone told me that it was banned in Tennessee - is this true? It should be banned all over!
