" It doesn't matter how young of an age you declaw your cat, eventually one, if not all of these things will happen."

This is the statement that I referred to as "all" or "every". I simply needed to point out that sometimes and often none of these things will happen but you will have a loving well adjusted pet. I am not "mad" as you put it, but this board has a tendency to get nasty in a hurry and when people start taking things personally it is time for things to cool off. A good Vet who truly cares about the animal he treats most certainly will tell the client the plusses and minuses of any surgery and help them to make the correct decision. Just as a surgeon will for humans. Of course there are some surgeons and some Vets who will just go for the money. But as a rule you can not go to a surgeon and say, hey, I don't think I like my gallbladder anymore, you wanna remove it for me?? My Vets have.....many times through many years told me what the pet needs and what it will do for them and let me make the decision.
