so I'm choosing to get my cat de- clawed and apparently I'm inhumane because I want to do it. yes she's older she was born last July. but she's tearing up my couches, since the other cat has a new home. and with a new born I'm scared she'll scratch her. I understand it's gonna hurt , but to tell me I don't deserve a cat ?? have they seen the videos of dogs skinned alive ?? SMH.
Have you tried claw covers? My cats have caused hundreds of dollars worth of damage to my carpets so I got them claw covers, like fake nails for cats. and they're rounded so they cover the cats sharp claws. Way better then getting the cat declawed
I've seen how they take them out too and there are risks but there's risks with everything. They give them a shot for the pain before they leave too. I don't have money to keep buying new furniture lol and im not gonna keep my stuff covered that's silly
I personally don't believe in declawing. However you need to do what's best for your family. After going to school for veterinary medicine I learned that it's better for a cat to have a loving home that declaws it than to be back in a shelter because it scratched up their kid.
I was considering declawing my kitten but idk the age to do it? We just recently bought new couches and a new leather dining room set when my brother brought home the kitten. For the most part he doesn't mess with the chairs but lately he's been scratching at everything and I'm worried he'll ruin the furniture 😖 plus he doesn't mean to play rough but he sure like to claw everyone's feet
see she ignores the post I've bought her I've tried sprays for the couch. n saying no but she doesn't stop @rennysmommy
I'm gettin mine declawed. They're ruining EVERYTHING. Ruined basically new couches- to the point of no return and ill be damned if I buy new couches for them to be ruined again. They have scratch posts thy still claw everything.
yes I've seen it! but I think there are worse things that get done to animals besides declawing. she would just feel it after the meds wear off. I'm getting new furniture in my house and that's the main reason we're doing is because we're redoing our home before the baby arrives. every cat is different she's a girl and I've read up alot on them getting jealous. and yes I'm going to request it our appointment is next week. @courtt
They have a procedure now where they can cut the tendon to the claw so the cat can keep their nails but have no control over them or extend to use them
The main reason they say it's inhumane is because if she is every accidently let out the house then she won't be able to defend herself from what is out there.
You can request to have your cat numbed or put to sleep to be declawed.
They put cats to sleep to remove claws. My cat has no claws she's a Himalayan big prissy pants and spoiled rotten
Have you see how they get de clawed? And what could happen afterwards? Im not judging or anything i have a cat and my couches are all scratched up but we will never declaw him. We just deal with it lol. And i have a baby and he doesnt get near her at all.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
Yes they worked for me but they come off so fast I feel like I'm constantly glueing them back on. They don't like them on either they bite at them too. It's a big hassle to get them on because they don't like it@bentleysmomma
