On our site we wrote that declawing for ferrets should only be done as a last resort. Since we got so much response on this by ferret lovers, we decided to change this by "should never be done". I personally believe it should never be done (not even with cats) but when I asked this question to our vet he told us that sometimes there isn't another solution. And I quote : "When you have to make the choice between putting an animals to sleep because he destroys the whole living room or declawing, the choice is pretty obvious". I would like to hear your opinion about this. Thx! Johan. For pet care and more....shop at www.our-pets.net [Posted in FML issue 2949]
