Thank You Dr. King

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

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.

The AVMA cyberbullies a little orange cat who is trying to end animal cruelty (Declawing)

I am a medium sized orange tabby who’s had a rough couple of months.
I was canned from my job at Friskies and then I got really sick with some sort of dizzying vestibular problem.
Then my mom was picked on by the very big and powerful veterinary organization, the AVMA, who accused us of cyber bullying them in the America’s Favorite Veterinarian contest.
I’m just trying to keep kitty paws healthy and happy by ending declawing. Why do they call me such horrible names and want to shun me?
What has the world come to when a kitty can’t use his fame to protect other kitties?

Clear evidence of pain and postoperative complications with declawing.

Here is a MAJOR study just published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (JAVMA) You can read the whole thing but basically, in a nutshell, it shows that most veterinarians see debarking and earcropping as unnecessary procedures in veterinary medicine and NOW, finally, this study says that declawing should be looked at in the same way! It also says that there is clear evidence of pain
and postoperative complications with declawing.

Declawing is NOT recommended for human health issues

Some unethical pro-declaw veterinarians promote amputating kitties toes to stop cat scratch fever or disease. These are the simple facts about this disease and according to all the modern thinking, educated, and humane veterinarians and human health experts, declawing should NEVER be done for any reason, including this cat scratch fever disease.
