Anyone have any tips on purchasing Persian kittens? I'm helping a friend (her first cat) purchase a Persian kitten tomorrow. I know a lot about cats, but not specifically about Persians. She also wants to have it declawed, even though I am trying my best to discourage her, but she has leather furniture and is worried about that. What is the earliest you can declaw a cat? And does anyone have any thoughts on declawing (hopefully negative!)? Thanks.
