Re: Thinking of getting a kitten.
[ QUOTE ]
It seems like the only defense the opponents of declawing have is "this vet says it's inhumane." Every declawed cat I've ever seen runs, plays, climbs on furniture, purs, sleeps, and eats just like every other cat. These cats do not act as if they are in pain.

Yeah, what would a vet know? Its not like he or she is likely to have much knowledge about animals. And they probably object to declaw cats because they do not want work, its not like vets are happy to get costumers and income.
I rather trust someone who has no medical expertise about animals who says cats are fine with being declawed based on the assumption of 1 catīs happiness.
We all know that human beings that have had something amputated are constantly miserable, its not like they somehow are able to show happinness while still missing parts of their body that they ideally would like to get back.
