| Amount: $150.00 |

| Breed: Short-haired | Type of Procedure: Resco Clipper |
| I used cat care animal hospital in Marietta, GA, and they were wonderful! They kept him for 3 days to make sure he was okay and by the time I picked him up he was already playing with toys and using his paws like normal. He still uses his paws to "scratch" and play like normal, not like many people would have you believe that try to scare you away from the procedure. |

| Breed: Angoran/DSH | Type of Procedure: Declaw |
| I had both of my cats Declawed in 2002 with a laser procedure. They both recovered with no bandages, no blood, No Problems, they just didn't like torn paper in the litter box for 10 days. 6 years later at age 14, they still have had no problems, still like to scratch but no claw marks. Don't allow others to scare you with horror stories that continue to be passed on. |

| Breed: Medium haired tabby | Type of Procedure: Declaw |
| I used a facility in Youngstown, Ohio called Animal Pet Clinic and they were fine. They kept him for a day and a half (per my request not to stay longer) and he was okay by the time I brought him home. After just one day, he was jumping on furniture and so forth. I was suprised. As stated above, don't worry about the horror stories other state. My cat was a loving cat before and has the same temperant after. |

| Breed: DHS & DLH | Type of Procedure: Declaw |
| I have 4 cats and all 4 have been declawed. I had 3 cats declawed in Baton Rouge, LA and 1 was declawed in Lafayette, LA. None of my babies had any trouble except they refused to use the shredded paper instead of litter, so we had to let them use their regular litter and then clean their feet. All 4 cats are super loving, and still use the "scratching post" regularly. It's quite cute to watch! I believe that people who post horror stories about how awful and painful it is for cats have never actually had or seen a cat after it's been declawed. My cats were groggy for a couple of days from the anesthesia, but other than that, played and acted perfectly normal! |

| Hey.. I had my 6 yr orange tabby declawed with a laser when he was 6 mo old. The vets say its better when they are younger. He barely noticed and is doing fine to this day. My mom had her cat that was 1 yr old done with the older method.. not sure which and that seemed to be more painful to them. Quite a bit of healing was involved. Laser is better... i think, but I just talked to my vet today about it and she said that it can actually hinder healing because it burns the site shut??? I dunno what she was talking about because codderizing(sp?) it would do the same i think. |

| Breed: DSH | Type of Procedure: disarticulation |
| Ihad three cats that were all declawed when they were four months old.We had just their front paws done and there was never a problem with infection or pain that we could see by their running and jumping the following day. The all lived very long lives. Two to 18 years of age and one 21 years. They even got outside a few times (we tried never to let them out, but sometimes they slipped by us) and lilled chipmonks and birds! One of them even climbed a tree. We now have two new babies that have been declawed and they are still loveable and crazy. We, of course have started training to make sure that they don\'t got outside. This time around the cost was 225 each for the disarticulation surgery. I hope this helps anyone that is considering having this done. |

| Breed: mix | Type of Procedure: |
I had a large cat declawed and he had a hard time because he had multi toes. I have a new cat and he's ruining my furniture. I put soft paws on him, he ripped them off. I didn't want to have the "normal" declawing so when I checked about laser declawing it's $450.00 in my area which is more than I can afford.
Does anyone know of a GREAT vet in the Tucson, Arizona area that does laser? |

| Breed: Short Hair Mixed | Type of Procedure: - |
| So, I just adopted my kitty (well shes 1)from the humaane society and she is not declawed, i cant decide which procedure to do laser or traditional or just buy soft claws? My roomates kitty is declawed and I'm afrid she may hurt her when playing, plus a new kitty is joining our family soon? Any helpful ideas or tips? |

| Breed: long hair | Type of Procedure: ??? |
| My kitty was declawed front and back when I adopted her from the pound two years ago. She still scratches on things like a cat with claws would do. It is very amusing seeing her play like she is "a vicious kitty" knowing she can't claw me. |

| Breed: long hair | Type of Procedure: disarticulation |
| Had my male cat nuetered and declawed at the same time. He did very well, other than one claw did grow back but has not gotten infected or anything (he likes to sharpen it, lol) Have a female now and tried to just use soft paws. They are VERY hard to apply because she will not stay still long enough and we have to force her to stay put. I'm afraid we are going to hurt her trying to do it, and she won't keep them on for long. Going to get her declawed laser procedure next week. |

| Breed: Feral short-hair | Type of Procedure: Declaw |
| I just had my 4-5 month old cat adopted. I never liked cats, but when this feral kitten showed up in the middle of a thunderstorm and cried to get in, I just couldn\'t say no. She quickly tore up my brand new living room furniture, my legs, face, and arms, so I had her declawed when she was spayed. I debated long and hard due to the ethical implications of declaw, but it is the BEST decision I could have made for both of us. She stayed over 2 days and by the time she got back the only different I noticed was a few stitches and the fact that I wasn\'t constantly bleeding. If anything, the surgery has improved her temperament! |

| Breed: short hair | Type of Procedure: laser declaw |
| In and out the same day, and the first night my cat was pretty sedated. The next day he started hobbling around, and by evening he got the bandages off. By day 3, you wouldn't know anything had been done to him. No bleeding at all. He just didn't like paper shreds in the litter box. |

| Breed: Short hair | Type of Procedure: Laser |
| Thanks everyone for your positive comments, taking my 1yr old cat next week to have his done wiht the laser method. It will cost me about $170. I don\'t want to feel like I am doing something terrible, I love him but he is tearing up furniture and comforters. They can\'t help it, its natural to want to scratch. |

| Amount: $364.00 |
| Posted by: Allykat in Reynoldsville, PA. | Posted: April 6th, 2010 06:04AM |
| Breed: medium hair | Type of Procedure: neuter, declaw, rabies, distemper |
| My cat was kept for 3 days after all these procedures, they wanted to send home the paper litter, but I declined because we had the cat genie, which worked out perfectly fine, the cat genie uses plastic litter that can be washed after every use (flushed actually) but clean it uses safe chemicals, so it\'s actually more sanitary. |
