I understood what you were saying Munchie. I know that you know me very well and know that for no reason, ever would I give any of my furbabies away. I don't mind the furniture, after all it is theirs. However, replacing wall paper is expensive, time consuming and I just can't afford to do that every couple of months. Samantha and Tabitha were the only 2 that seemed to think the wall paper needed to be pulled down, hence they are declawed after trying all available means to convince them that couches and chairs are ok. Walls are not! Both cats seem to not realize that they don't have claws. Just ask Charlee, they pop him often enough or Attila who both of them send rolling when he gets to obnoxious....at least once a day. It is a controversial topic and a very personal choice for each and every person. I just ask that people think long and hard, try every available means to deter the cat before they make that decision. Please don't just do it cause it is an available surgery and you want too. Think of the pet first!
