Declawing can cause behavior problems too. Without claws as a defense they can start biting. The litterbox can be very painful for their feet and they will stop using it. The behavior issues can lead to them being dumped at a shelter. My parents neighbors threw out their elderly declawed cat. She couldn't use a litterbox, my parents kept her and had her use puppy pads instead. She was an angel, they gave her the best possible life. She didn't deserve what happened to her.

@The_1stToast We didn’t declaw our cat we lasered them off. Lasering is COMPLETELY different than declawing. It js goes down to the claws nerve and severes it so it cant grow back. So it causes so much less pain for your cat. I know your against it but we have a super aggressive female cat and we had to get it done since cat scratches are very likely to get infected!

My cat (sadly passed) was declawed. It wasn’t our decision as she was already declawed when we adopted her. As she got older we realized she was in pain from arthritis in her toes. Her paws sunk inwards and it became very hard for her to walk. After a year-ish of her pain she couldn’t make it to the litter box and we recently got a kitten around that time. As she couldn’t use her litter box she peed everywhere. After taking her to the vet on multiple occasions and giving her medication for the pain, nothing seemed to work well. The vet recommended we put her down. After a few weeks we made the decision to put her down. We all loved her greatly and she went down with her best friend. (My dad). She passed at age 16 and lived a long happy life. She is missed everyday. RIP Willow ❤

May I ask why people declaw their cats ? When I heard about the term "declaw", I thought it was just cutting their nails (which sometimes necessary buy many people in my country including me don't do it since it's taking away their ability to hunt and protect themselves. Even tho house cat don't need to hunt for food anymore, sometimes they just want to hunt). But cutting their claws completely like this seems too cruel.

@user-bd9jm4vd1t generally it's because cats do things like claw up furniture if you don't provide them with something like a scratching post. my parents had one of our cats declawed after he took a swipe at me for messing with his tail and he left me with a pretty good gash on my face (which i absolutely deserved) it's a lazy "solution" to normal cat behaviors used by people who don't understand their pets and don't feel like caring for them properly. there are some medical conditions that might require declawing for the sake of saving the cat, but bearing in mind that you're permanently disabling your cat by doing it i still get the ick. personally, depending on how old your cat is, i think prolonging their life that way can be incredibly inhumane.

I work at a vet clinic and we do not offer declawing. We have had a few people ask. I had one client I was working with ask and I explained that we can trim nails regularly or even place Kitty caps if she really wanted. She kept saying how she wished she could declaw her cat cause he kept scratching her roommate. I told her about the declawing process, what it is, what it means and entails, the extremely long healing process, arthritis, associated mobility issues, and the chronic pain as well as behavioral issues (her cat is not scratching someone for the fun of it, he has a lot of energy and not enough outlet). She said she knows but still regrets not getting him declawed when he was little cause she just loves him so much she can’t have him scratching people but can’t give him up. She’s a nice lady and I’ve seen how much she absolutely loves this cat so this took me completely for a loop. I just don’t think she fully comprehend the absolute pain her beloved cat would be in.

It’s a fucking cat

[@xxkenxxgames5392]

I never knew how bad it was. I just assume people were making a fuss for a simple opinion, but this is genuinely horrible and I hope people know this before declawing.

As a cat lover, watching this brought me to tears Edit: oh my Force how did I get this many likes?

As a Person whose younger sister once got scratched and hand become basically a Baseball ⚾ I'm not in tears . Rather I find this cruel to the man themselves wasting so much money on that cat changing to be in his narrative. Rather let that live in streets the way it wants

Imagine being so deranged that you look at your own cat and think “yep, we need your claws surgically removed”

@Riley-f6kthen don’t get a damn cat

[@HyperYT-ob8fc]

​@Riley-f6kYour right mate, your family is not deranged, your parents are.

[@Reoxla]

@Riley-f6k you wouldnt leave a cat alone with a 2 year old the kid doesnt know how to treat a cat if the kid presures the cat too much the cat will resort to scratching

[@BigBoyWillGoGlobal]

@Riley-f6kthey’re not deranged just Malicious and selfish who leaves a two year old with a cat like that and if he’s a danger than get rid of it. Your parents just ended up torturing the poor animal. Disgusting

[@jealous6434]

@Riley-f6k “a bit of pain” you mean his toes literally being cut off. Idk why you feel the need to defend your parents, just say “yes it was inhumane and i don’t agree with it”. You didn’t need to share the story but you did, accept the fact that ppl might not agree with you defending your parents or just delete the comment lol

[@jiwrath]

And that's what claw caps are for! A trained groomer can put claw caps on a cat after trimming the nails, which covers the claws, keeping them dull, but doesn't outright remove them. My mother often did as part of her pet grooming work.

[@Panensi]

Oh, awesome!

[@Crispytuba328]

My cat got a cuticle infection from this. Don't recommend

[@jiwrath]

@Crispytuba328 that sounds like whoever did it messed up then. That never occurred to any cat my mother worked on. She's even done it to cats she owns

[@HAIRHOLIC_1]

It hurts my heart when I think about declawed cats 💔 when I first got my kittens I’ve trained them to not scratch the furniture, fast forward 5 years and they still never scratched our furniture. If people learn how to train their cats properly there won’t be a need for declawing. I also have velvet furniture and it seems that cats don’t like this material to file their nails. I buy them plenty of scratch pads and they also have an old chair I got for free from marketplace that they can use to scratch. No need to mutilate them 😫💔

[@joeylouderback5999]

You don’t even need to be a groomer- my mom has about 3 kits at home for any strays I find on the farm!

[@demomangaming6999]

My father declawed our cats back 13-14 years ago not knowing it causes pain or other sorts of issues in cats. Thank goodness they didn’t end up with chronic pain or arthritis.

[@mr_void4]

I hate it when people are like " I declawed him because I don't want him to scratch me" if you don't want your cat to scratch you WHY EVEN GET ONE IN THE FIRST PLACE!?

[@actual_corpse]

... your cat won't even scratch you unless you're abusing it... or it's a complete accident, which is very infrequent.... That's such a stupid reason 😂

Declawing a cat is like asking a person if they’d like the ends of their fingers cut off. They’d obviously say no when it’s them T__T

Zack, as a cat rescuer who desperately tries to educate humans with a 20 IQ who have cats, i want to absolutely thank you for this video!!!! It's not easy trying to get facts through thick skulls and this video should help those who cannot fathom this barbaric cruelty. I will be showing and sharing this across all my forms of social media, you have no idea how much you just helped a very underpopulated community of people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Can we also talk about tail docking and ear cropping too!!!❤❤❤❤

[@GalaGrinsArt]

If it's for looks on a regular house dog, then yeah it should be banned. However having the ears or tail docked can save the life of a livestock guardian dog when it's performing its duties. Predators, like wild canines, like to grab onto the ears and tail which leaves terrible injuries. If I remember correctly, a predator can scalp a dog by ripping their ears off. I do agree that it feels barbaric to us who have only had house pets, but it's nessisarry out in the country.

THIS SHOULD BE BANNED EVERYWHERE ASAP

When we got our cat about 12 years ago, my mother had him declawed. She was not aware of the pain it caused the cat until about a year ago. Luckily, our cat does not have arthritis or chronic pain, and is still loving and active despite being 12 years old.
