Meet Floyd, the rescue kitty. Floyd's owners came home one day to find a meowing little kitty in their front yard. They took him in to their home, with the intention of passing him on to their local non profit or local humane society with the hope that he would be adopted. Neither took him. So they decided to keep Floyd and took him to their local vet who recommended a neuter, vaccines & dewormer. The vet asked if they wanted Floyd declawed and the cats owners were adamant that absolutely NO! So they brought him home, kept him isolated over the weekend and then took him to the vet Monday morning for the neuter surgery. The vet practice had a lot of people waiting and it was quite chaotic. The cat owner forgot to bring the paperwork that morning so they put another sticker on a new consent form, asked the cat owner to sign it first and then filled out the boxes while quickly asking the cat owner what she had asked for. The cat owner said NO when the receptionist asked her if she wanted a declaw but the receptionist mixed up the words declaw and dewormer and checked the DECLAW box. So instead of getting dewormed, Floyd got DECLAWED! Here is what Floyd's owner said, "When I got there they made we wait a long time before asking me to come back to have a conversation. That is when they told me they "Accidentally" declawed Floyd. Their excuse was that it was such a crazy morning she couldn't remember whether or not we wanted declawing so they went ahead and did it anyway. It's hard to type my initial reaction, my palm went to my mouth, my heart went into my heels and I just wanted to see my friend Floyd. The tech apologized aggressively and I consoled as far as I could. I do realize that we all make mistakes." It turns out that Floyd never had a blood test to confirm if he was healthy enough for the neuter and declaw surgeries. A few days later poor Floyd was rushed to a vet specialty clinic. He was having congestive heart failure & his chest filled w fluid. He had a horrible infection and was put on an oxygen cage. He went home yesterday but is being carefully watched. #ny #ban #declawing #now #citythekitty #pawsneedclaws #goodoverevil
