Please support this bill. Declawing is the amputation of the last bone on a cat’s paw. Declawing is inhumane and significantly increases the chance of back pain, litter box aversion and biting. Cats deserve to be treated more humanely. Declawing is banned or considered unethical in dozens of countries around the world. New York, Maryland and D.C, have banned declawing, along with more than a dozen cities across the U. S. Can I count on your support to join these other cities/countries?
