Dental Cleanings and Declawing Double Standards

There is a post from a veterinarian on the AVMA’s facebook page that is causing a big uproar and it’s all about standards, ethics, and poor medical care.
The topic is non-anesthesia dental cleaning.
NYSVMS 2015 – “We Scored a Direct Hit”, “We Scored A Major Win For The Profession.”

They’ve even spent a ton of money hiring lobbyists to propagate untruths. They must be spending over $10,000/ month to protect their right to mutilate cat paws! Imagine if they spent that money on helping cats through spay/neuter programs or adoptions!
No veterinarian ever explained this horrible procedure to me

That lovely lady there is Mufasa. She was my kitty soul mate. She crossed the rainbow bridge a long time ago, but I still miss her very much.

Thank You Dr. King

He was a great man. A humanitarian, a civil rights activist, and an inspiring leader with integrity and honor.

My friends. Tomorrow is CATurday and I seriously need to just have some fun.
I am City the Kitty. I am the enemy of evil.

I am City the Kitty,
I am the enemy of evil. I am the ally of all cats.
I am the enemy because I protect kitties’ toes. I am the protector of paws.
I’m Sorry

Dear friend,
I’m sorry.
Yesterday you sent me a note and spoke from your heart. You told me how you feel.
You’re probably not alone. I know you meant well, but it hurt.
