 |  |  |  | I once injured my big toe, resulting in having the entire nail removed under local anaesthetic. It was the most painful thing I've ever had to endure in my life (everyone knows the nerves in the nail bed are very concentrated) and it took me months to recover. And that was just the nail. I cannot imagine the pain and trauma involved in the amputation surgery of EVERY claw, and I am at a loss to understand how this butchery practice evolved. I am shocked that people who claim to love cats do this to their animals. It's illegal in most European countries, so, even if you tried, you could not find a vet who would carry out this barbaric operation. |  |  |  |  |
