Okay, I saved one cat from being declawed, but the other sister in law is being a bitch. 'She has too many expensive things in the house.' She is not willing to put in the effort of training the cat to use a post. What do you do with someone like that? It is no big deal to her. One week of pain and then they get over it. This will be done at the same time as the spaying. I feel so sorry for the poor kitten. She is an identical twin to Amber. Her daughter does not want her to get declawed either. But, that doesnt matter. Once she makes up her mind, its turned into law.
