I was sent this photo of a sign at the front desk of the Texas Coalition for Animal Protection (TCAP) in Fort Worth. Next to the sign is TCAP’s 2007 award from the Humane Society US, for “the most innovative approach to animal welfare in the nation.” It saddens me an organization like TCAP, that does so much good to help the overpopulation of animals in Texas, would even offer such a cruel and inhumane surgery that causes so much pain and suffering in a cat, all for the welfare of a piece of furniture.
It sends a terrible message that declawing is as important as spay/neutering. Amputating the toe bones and claws off a little kitten or a cat, and saying they do it so that it can better find a home, is such a barbaric, antiquated, and inhumane approach. NOT innovative at all.
TCAP, please live up to your name as an “innovative organization” and work to come up with original and inventive ways of dealing with scratching issues. Why not focus on fresh and creative ways that cats can use scratchers and have their nails trimmed and at affordable rates. Why not help to create a new mindset like most of the world has, that says declawing is cruel and inhumane and should never be an option and where they have made it illegal.
Declawing cats and kittens is the complete opposite of “humane”, “compassionate solution”, “helping animal welfare,” or “Animal Protection” as their mission statement says.
Help me create a new culture where we focus on all the humane alternatives to declawing and please help me persuade organizations like Texas Coalition for Animal Protection to only and always help and protect all animals and not put them through such a horrific, inhumane thing like declawing is. Then hopefully someday, they will get another humane award from HSUS that will really live up to their name and help end this barbaric procedure.
And for some strange reason I've been blocked from commenting on their FB page so maybe you can respectfully run this innovative idea past them and see if they step up to the humane challenge. #mypurpose #StopDeclawing #citythekitty #cooltohaveclaws
