I am convinced like. Was always against it just on intuition.

Perhaps include photos of the operation in a collage?
And only shit in next doors garden rather than the litter tray, like most cats.

We trim our cats' claws regularly, it's just like cutting a toddler's finger nails - they'll squirm and complain but it doesn't hurt them .
You can't stop little scratches on furniture (especially leather) completely though so if you are worried about it don't get a cat. Cats are wonderful animals and great pets but they are hard work. Too many people get pets thinking they will be cute little fur balls that will do whatever you tell them to do, then get annoyed when they act like animals!

f***ing horrible getting a cat declawed 
@FootballFan , I bought my cat a scratchpost and a cardboard scratch pad thingy which he loves - he's a cat. Cats scratch shit (I've noticed the bugger has had a bit of a swipe at my wallpaper anarl) and I just have to suck that shit up, as any loving cat owner would do .

My cats will actually come in to use the litter tray if they are outside, the weird little shites!

OP's Mrs will have the cat booked in for botox and fillers when it's getting on a bit in a few years.

WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE THINKING.
Cats NEED claws. Its how they move, turn, balance. Would she pull her finger nails out? Fuck me.
Get a proper claw cutter, get used to cutting them once a week. Get a few nice scratch posts, those activity ones are good. My god, I can't believe someone would do this to a pet. Why even have a f***ing pet if you want to mutilate the poor thing?
I'm almost speechless. Although I'm f***ing not judging by the above.
By the way, just google "declaw cat", and you try to find something not entirely against it. You'll struggle

That actually made me feel sick. f***ing hell. What sort of horrible horrible bastard would do that. Even in the worst case of scratching - get help, give it away to a rescue centre, anything - just don't mutilate the thing. Jesus.

It's just common decency towards our cat brethren man

Is cauterising the tips of the claws not an option ?

Disgusting and cruel.
How anybody can think it's acceptable is nuts that's mutilating your pet
To be fair you seem a bit more tolerant of damage to furniture than most people

Do the same here, especially since they're indoor.
