I've had cats de-clawed. Never a problem. Happy cats. Everywhere you turn someone's trying to put fear into you about something and push you to some exaggerated concern for…fill in the blank. Lots of scientific sounding talk but my cats have been happy and I reject your advice.

Thank you for contributing. I'm very glad you haven't had any bad experiences with declawing cats. My intention however isn't to put fear into anyone. Even for the cats who don't have post-surgery repercussions or behavioral changes, there is still the fact that they cannot stretch their muscles properly and that their new gait puts abnormal stress on their spines over time. And the surgery is still very painful for them, even if your cats never mentioned that part to you. But I do appreciate your feedback!
