Guest guest Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 The vet we were going to when we adopted him said the surgery had been badly done, and showed us a textbook drawing of what a healed paw should look afterwards. Comparing his paw to the drawing, it seemed easy to understand why his paw still hurts him. > Have you checked with your vet to see what the problem is?

Is there nothing that can be done to correct this? As I posted before, my girls are both front only declawed and their " hands " are soft and smooth and there are no problems at all. Now, we do need to wrestle a bit to clip the " feet " nails, they don't like this and are not crazy about having either hands or feet handled, there never appears to be any pain at all. In fact, they go to the couch and chairs and " scratch " as though they are sharpening their claws. During their younger years, they had a " kitty condo " on top of a high pole and also a couple of high climbing perch things. They have never been short of toys and " stuff " . lol Now they are older and don't climb a lot but do get on and off of tables, dressers and window ledges, etc. They have tables and stools by all of their " favorite " windows. My heart goes out to you and this poor kitty. in Northern Illinois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
