I'm bringing this back up because I feel quite strongly about this. If the cat's behavior could kill or maim it and the only way to stop that behavior is to declaw the cat, then declaw the cat.
Teaching, training, whatever you want to call it, is worthless if the cat is permanently disabled.
I'm not a fan of elective surgery. I've lost pets to anaesthesia before. However, you have to weigh the options and choose the method which will keep the cat safest.
