June 9, 2006, Newsletter Issue #119: Find a Top Notch Vet for Declawing

Tip of the Week

Declawing of Cats - I canīt lie: there is a lot of negative press detailing the horrors of declawing your cat. I know that some of that press stems from bad experiences with less than qualified persons performing the surgery. Some of the bad press is from animal rights activists. Regardless of your political views on this topic, you should make certain you have an experienced and reputable vet.

You donīt accept second best with your own health or the health of your children; donīt settle for second best with the quality of your vet. Ask your vet about her experience level; how many times has he performed this operation; what is her success rate; has he had any failures; what is his/her personal opinions about the operation. Ask neighbors, friends, and local breeders who they use for their vet.

The most important step in declawing your pet, is to make certain you have a good vet.
