My decision to stop doing this surgery now is that other veterinarians will hopefully follow the new position statement from CVMA and stop declawing cats. As fewer and fewer veterinarians perform this procedure there is less of a concern that clients will go somewhere else and less concern that the surgery is not being done properly with the appropriate pain control.
The demand for this procedure comes from the public, and veterinarians should not be the only ones at fault . Cat owners need to stop asking us to do this procedure and we need say no and provide alternatives.
I’m proud to say I no longer declaw

Pierrefonds Animal Hospital in Quebec, Canada is proud to announce that we no longer perform cat declaws (onychectomy).
I received this awesome note and wanted to share it with all of you.
