DECLAWING ALTERNATIVES

We at Greys and Strays do not advocate declawing for ethical  reasons....We NEVER have and NEVER will.  See the Downloads below , the links and the AAFP's 2017 Declawing Position Statement before  you make your decision.  Claw trimming helps tremendously along with  scratchers of various substrates, sizes and types; cat nip, pheromones,  Feliscratch, double sided tape,  Soft Paws etc

The PAW PROJECT-ALL cats deserve their claws!!!
