One respondent said: \u201cI&#8217;m afraid that more cats will be euthanized because of scratching.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A UK vet (where declawing is prohibited) asked: \u201cAre there actually people who try to argue from an ethical standpoint for declawing? I&#8217;m a UK vet, just interested to hear.\u201d One fan replied with a simple, \u201cOh, yes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One respondent also wondered if research supports the argument that declawing causes behavioral and physical problems: \u201cI would like to see objective numbers of shelter or rescue-surrendered cats with and without claws. If the mantra is correct that declawed cats have more behavioral issues (litterbox avoidance being the biggest complaint) and pain problems, the shelter population should reflect that. I have yet to see the numbers spelled out so obviously. I have inherited a 4-paw declaw who is 15 and still moves with ease and have a 14-year-old that I raised with claws who is still very agile, and a 13-year-old with claws who struggles to jump because she is shaped like a football.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The New York Legislation<\/h3>\n<p>In a first for the United States, New York State lawmakers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nysenate.gov\/legislation\/bills\/2019\/s5532\">banned declawing of cats<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDeclaw surgery, also known as onychectomy, is not simply the removal of the animal\u2019s nails or claws; it involves at least 10 separate amputations of the last bone of each toe,\u201d says the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.humanesociety.org\/2019\/06\/in-a-first-for-the-nation-new-york-state-lawmakers-vote-to-ban-cat-declawing.html\">American Humane Society<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Several U.S. cities ban cat declawing except for therapeutic reasons, and so do a majority of Canadian provinces. The practice is also banned in dozens of countries. After New York banned the procedure, will other states follow?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDeclawing is cruelty, plain and simple, and with so many low-cost and pain-free alternatives available, there is no reason to allow this barbaric practice to continue, not here in New York or anywhere,\u201d declared Assemblywoman Linda Rosenthal. She advocated for the anti-declawing bill for five years before it was signed into law.\u00a0New York has been catapulted onto the leaderboard of humane states, and we expect other states to quickly follow in our footsteps.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Learn More<\/h3>\n<p>Please act when you see signs of animal abuse or neglect.
