Facebookers - Join Cause to Ban Declawing

by Cat owner who didn't have the facts 18 yrs ago
(Ontario, Canada)

The Paw Savers cause was created by Dr. Jean Hofve.

Dr. Hofve writes that she has been educating people about declawing for more than 16 years, and recently joined the efforts of the Paw Project to legislatively ban declawing of cats and other pets.

Please consider joining the cause: Paw Savers

Paw Project - Your continued support is needed to help end the inhumane practice of feline declawing. - Paw Project

Dr. Hofve has several articles on Little Big Cat.com in the free article library about declawing.

The has a summary of the facts I believe led to the declaw ban in some cities in California.

Vets won’t declaw dogs because it’s considered too painful – that is, the dogs SHOW signs of being in pain.

Just because cats are more stoic does NOT mean they suffer any less!

Please support declaw bans, help educate vets & cat owners with the facts, & advocate for the voiceless.

Thank you

On behalf of kitties & unsuspecting owners,

Thank you for posting this. Thank you to everyone who shares the info & invites others to the cause. I sincerely hope this cause goes country-wide in both the US & Canada & that many people get behind it.

This is supposed to be the great "Information Age", yet I'm still hearing from cat owners that weren't aware that declawing means the amputation of their cats' toes!

Shame on veterinarians who don't council their clients!

Shame on veterinary colleges for not teaching about humane alternatives and behaviour modification! Non-surgical problems deserve non-surgical solutions.

Let's bring in "the Humane Age".
