My aunt used to breed cats to sell as pets and according to her, declawing should only be considered on kittens because they are able to adapt as they are still developing and won't be adversely affected when they get older. They just don't remember it even happening.

Doing it to a cat as old as a young adult is likely to cause permanent trauma and almost certainly litterbox problems.

There was one instance where someone was paying so much that she did a declawing on a cat that was no longer a kitten and she massively regretted it because it feared people for the rest of its life.

That doesn't sound off-topic whatsoever so.

@TwinkleSnort, yes, sterilizing an animal I obviously to keep it from reproducing. I'm not so sure about it being healthier for an animal based on the fact it isn't healthier for other animals, namely humans. When men are accidentally castrated and women have hysterectomies, they're given HRT to supplement the loss. Sex drive excluded, the lack of estrogen in women and testosterone in men causes other medical maladies, I have a hard time believing removing healthy organs from any other animals aside from humans only nets positive results with no negative.

My dog that didn't have his balls chopped off never actually jumped anyone. It sounds like the primary motivation for doing as much is to prevent that kind of embarasing scenario (considering it's no longer the 70s and people don't allow their dogs to roam the neighborhood freely to get knocked up) which is on part with being annoyed by scratched furniture. I'd say it's less worse because at least getting your legged humped doesn't lead to any property damage.

Except these aren't people we're talking about. We're talking about animals.

There's evidence that not fixing an animal can increase the risk of cancer and other health complications. A simple Google search brings up credible results.

You're comparing apples to oranges here. If you want to make a thread on spaying/neutering be my guest.

We were talking about cat tits. Don't derail the convo.
 
I'm strongly against it. I've only ever known one declawed cat but he has a lot of behavioral problems compared to non-declawed cats. He tries to bite anyone that either touches his back paw, which became slightly damaged because of the procedure, or his back. Good thing is he walks, runs, and jumps fine so the declawing didn't seem to do that much but he'd probably be a much happier cat if it never took place.
