Of course, whenever we have these declaw discussions, I still come down to the question why do US vets still do this???
I've found that most vets here seem to care about the money more than the animals. I am fortunate to have one that isn't like that. He's awesome.

I'd say it was probably the new girlfriend that was behind the declaw too. Then she decided she didn't like them and said "oh, honey, I'm allergic, you're going to have to get rid of them". I can see someone I'm dating telling that about my cats. Basically the answer is.. yeah, they make shots for that. Oh, you don't like cats? Then I guess you'll be dating/marrying/seeing someone else. I'd be darned if I'd get rid of a cat because someone I was seeing decided for some reason they won't live with it.

It was probably her.



Oh, and you could probably get an animal advocate to take the case pro bono. You'd just have to do some looking. (And it may not be possible, but it'd make me mad enough to go on a search)

Ugh... I'm so sorry for them, but hope they get adopted by a great family.
Or person, LOL.

As for the vets... $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I'm so sorry! Those poor babies! I think the rescue should file a suit, because if not then, to me, the contract seems to be useless.

If anyone I was dating suggested I get rid of my cats, HE'D be gone; "You know what, honey? They were here first and they're still going to be here after you leave! Bye!"

That does seem to be true
