  • Declawing:  Many websites specialize in educating about the inhumane practice of  "cat declawing" and the one I like in particular,
    Good Cats Wear Black, written by a cat behavioral consulting specialist, explains how declawed cats ruin carpeting and furniture by severe, deep urinating and biting at 25 times the rate that normal cats cause damage by scratching.
    You can protect your cat's future; Please have compassion
    By the time they hit 1 to 8 years age, many declawed cats are out-of-control.  Most declawed cat owners had not been informed of what the operation entailed or any risks associated with declawing.  Nearly every declawed cat owner with such a problem claims they would never have their cat declawed again.  Even though it is outlawed as extremely inhumane in most European  countries and many other countries in the world, it is a shame so many owners in North America still have no knowledge of how dangerous this amputation is. 
    Alternatives to this are simple: I have placed links to builders of cat furniture as well as suppliers of claw clippers on the "Links and Pet Products" page on this website.  

My cats are always indoors and safe; I hope yours are too!

I support the concept of all cats being kept safely indoors at all times
