Posted by: reggiecat at Sat Aug 13 20:19:25 2005 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by reggiecat ] I don't understand why no one is telling you the behavorial issues that come with declawing your cat. You are taking away their main defense mechanism which results in the cat using its secondary defenses which are hiding, biting and worst of all not using its litterbox. It doesn't matter how young of an age you declaw your cat, eventually one, if not all of these things will happen. It may not happen in the first year or two but someday something will make the cat unhappy with you and it will stop using its litterbox. I've seen it happen to cats that are only a year and declawed at a young age. Really consider not declawing. If you trim your cats nails every two weeks it will keep them dull, so they can't do much damage to furniture and enforce scratching posts.
