🚫 Stop Declawing: It's Inhumane! 🚫
Declawing cats may seem like a quick fix, but did you know…
🐾 Declawing amputates a cat’s toes at the first joint, causing significant pain and increasing the risk of infection, nerve damage, and long-term mobility issues.
🐾 It often doesn’t solve the problem that owners are trying to fix — and can create new issues like biting, fearfulness, or avoiding the litter box.
🐾 Cats depend on their claws for balance, stretching, and self-defense, making declawing especially dangerous.
🐾 It’s also illegal in many countries and several U.S. states, reflecting how harmful the procedure truly is.
Scratching can definitely be frustrating, but there are safe, effective, and humane alternatives: regular nail trims, scratching posts, training, and soft nail caps. Let’s keep our feline friends happy, safe, and healthy! 🐾❤️
