Many people own, breed and love cats. Cats are very independent, clean, loving and nurturing animals that have been historically revered in countries such as Egypt.
People seem to run into problems with felines when it comes to the topic of scratching furniture.
Many owners choose to declaw their animal rather than try to put up with any of the scratching. People should realize that declawing their animal leaves her nearly defenseless against her enemies. This procedure works by removing the cat s phalanx, Phalanx or end toe joint. This is a very destructive procedure because the cat cannot grow that joint back nor does it grow back the muscle. The cat s joint atrophies, or degenerates, and the animal is left with, for all intents and purposes, a disfigurement.
