If you are a pet owner, you understand that scratching is an instinctual behavior for cats. While it may be natural for them, it can also be harmful to you, your family, and your belongings. If you have exhausted all other options and are considering declawing as a solution, look no further than Pawsoha’s professional cat declawing services.
The Safe and Comfortable Option
At Pawsoha, we prioritize the well-being and comfort of your furry friend. Our skilled veterinary doctors perform cat declaw surgery, known as onychectomy, in a safe and effective manner. During the procedure, all of the cat’s nails and nail beds are surgically removed, ensuring a secure and positive outcome.
Ensuring Comfort and Recovery
We understand that your pet’s comfort is of utmost importance to you. That’s why we provide multiple methods of pain control, including a nerve block, to keep your pet as comfortable as possible. Your cat will be under anesthesia during the procedure and will be hospitalized overnight for careful monitoring and pain management. Most pets are discharged the day after their surgery, except for those over one year old who may require additional observation.
Home Care for a Speedy Recovery
Once your cat returns home, it is crucial to provide proper care to ensure a quick and successful recovery. Avoid letting your pet climb, jump, or use regular cat litter. Instead, use shredded paper or compressed paper-based cat litter to prevent infection. Additionally, your cat will need to be confined indoors for the rest of their life, as their claws serve as their primary means of self-defense against other animals. Monitor your pet closely for any swelling or bleeding during the first 10-14 days at home.
Timing is Key
To minimize the stress on your pet, we recommend scheduling the cat declaw surgery at the same time as their spaying or neutering procedure. This avoids the need for multiple anesthesia exposures and streamlines the recovery process.
