You will want thick gloves, a thick towel, and a container with lid to insert the cat into. Beans is not declawed, and knows you will struggle to maneuver under the bed. You may need a spray bottle of water as well.

Good luck.

declawed

I haven’t yet had my fingertips snipped off either. Lovely euphemism for “mutilation of extremities”.

Do you just go around looking to be offended?

In this instance I agree with his point though. I don’t see you walking around without fingertips.

On a whole I don’t support any sort of unnecessary bodily modification, declawing, tail bobbing, circumcisions, or whatever.

What bothers me is when people find it necessary to interject some unneeded drivel because of some passing word that’s a perfectly well accepted term.

You literally just contradicted yourself in two sentences.

You claim you don’t support inhumane practices, but then you call it “unnecessary drivel” when someone speaks out against them? And then you try to normalize those inhumane practices as simply “perfectly well accepted terms”?

They’re not just words, those words have meanings, and the meaning of this one is atrocious.

Ok, but no one said anything about declawing their cat. No one suggested that declawing cats wasn’t harmful to them. What exactly is the point of getting pissy with someone for using the correct term for a thing?
