Declawing may sound like a simple nail trim, but it's actually a surgical amputation. In this procedure, the last bone of each toe is removed, which is equivalent to cutting off a human fingertip at the last knuckle.

Veterinarians call this surgery an onychectomy, and many no longer perform it due to the severe physical and behavioral effects it can cause.

Raising a kitten is a full-time commitment, and at PurrfectlyFold Cattery, it’s a 24-hour, no-break labor of love. From the moment our kittens are born, they are cared for around the clock. If a kitten struggles to eat, I wake up through the night to ensure they are fed and stay nourished. Every detail of their care is meticulously managed to give them the best possible start in life.
