it truly is torturing your precious, defenseless and loving critter. My little one is 2 and 1/2 years old and there's only one small place on a small section of a couch (it's my old one and I don't have it covered - btw, covering is also an option for you) that she ever claws. When I adopted her from the animal rescue shelter, I had to sign a contract that I'd NEVER have her declawed or EVER let her be an outdoor cat (I'm in L.A. and it's dangerous for cats here due to the traffic). She's given me so much joy and I feel that I've given her joy. I could never be involved in any form of "cruelty to animals" and declawing definitely is.
