The Truth About Declawing Cats and Healthy Alternatives That Won’t Hurt Your Fabulous Felines
Cats are cats, and they will do cat things. That is the main thing that we have learned over our time as cat owners. You can do your best to try to train your cats to do and not do certain things. You can try to stop your cats from stealing food off your plates with no shame, but they will keep trying their luck. You can tell your cats to not sit on your laptops and try to bite the screen, but laptops are warm and comfy, and if screens are not meant to be bitten, why were they made so nice and crunchy?
Cats will be cats, and if you can't accept that, then maybe cat ownership is not for you. Hurting your cats to stop them from being themselves is never the solution, which is why declawing is so, so awful. And there are many alternatives to it that you can try.

"But it scratches everything" is like- the worst excuse ever to declaw a cat. If your cat is attacking people… hurting them, you still should not do it, but we could at least understand why you would think about it. Scratching things… that's what cats do! Just have to get them more things to scratch.

There are so many other things that you can try first. You can get your cat cute nail caps. trim your cat's nails - and there are a million ways to do that right. We know these solutions might not seem ideal either, but it's your job to find a solution that works, it's not the cat's job to suffer because you didn't.
