How does surgically cutting out the nail and part of the cats > paw, "beneficial" to the cat? According to my vet, declawing is a *safe* surgical procedure. It also makes the cat quicker on its feet and less likely to fight with other cats. Some people complain that declawing causes a cat to become a *biter* from lack of claws to defend itself. From my experience this is not true at all. I would however, never entertain the thought of declawing an outside cat, or a cat that is considered a *mouser*. After having one of my cats jump into my infants crib, and scratch and scar him up terribly bad, (over the smell of milk from his bottle), I decided to have the cats declawed. I have had no more trouble from them and I am very satisfied with my decision. James Marz : >> Declawing is a tried and true method for solving this problem.

The bitemarks on his hand did however leave a permanent scar. Having the cat declawed was better than having him euthanized in my opinion, but my wife begs to differ.
