FACT: Declawing cats is cruel.


Prove me wrong.

reply

I agree, so I won't.

While it's not fun getting scratched by a cat, it's not fair to them to remove a natural weapon they need to defend themselves, even if they never really need to do so. Even worse, declawing leads to cats biting more.

reply

Absolutely. It’s actually an amputation of the end of their claws. It should be banned. Clip their claws often to dull them.

reply

It is illegal in Australia and New Zealand. And rightly so, it’s horribly cruel.

reply

It's illegal in Europe also. πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ίβ€‹
Who wants a declawed cat should buy a doll.
illegal under laws against cruelty to animals

Oh, Maryland just banned declawing also...after NY in 2019.
That gives me hope for the USA.
Meow thanks to NY and Maryland !! πŸˆβ€β¬›β€‹ πŸˆβ€β¬›β€‹ πŸˆβ€β¬›β€‹

reply

True.

Its akin to having your finger amputated at the nail joint/knuckle. It messes up their posture as cats walk on their toes which causes their weight distribution to shift causing unnecessary joint pain 😾.

reply


It is VERY cruel, and should NEVER be done.

reply

I feel the same way. We can't at all.

reply

I can’t imagine why anyone who claims to love cats would even consider such a barbaric thing. If your furniture or carpet is so important to you, don’t get a cat.

YOU SHOULD GO BACK INTO HIBERNATION.😐

But nobody wants claws in their cat soup.

Lol

Asshole. That made me laugh 😹

reply

Mission To Disgust The People Of Moviechat: accomplished.

reply

I’m not disgusted, I thought it was funny.

Still, that said, I am disgusted by your dress sense, but we’ve spoken about that before and this is neither the time nor the place to open those old wounds.

reply

I keep telling you that being naked all the time doesn't count as "dress sense" because there are no actual clothes.

reply

I JUST VOMITED IN MY MOUTH A LITTLE BIT.🀒

reply

This is overkill. You began to disgust me years ago.

reply

You're such a charmer. You must be brushing off the ladies left and right.

reply

Those are flies he’s brushing off, not ladies.

reply

I was saving leeches for him.

reply

This venomous response is revealing in how badly I got under your skin with a straightforward criticism that you actually opened the door to, lol.

reply

How badly you got under my skin? You mean like a blood sucking leech? Well played, db.

reply

Hah! You just stupidly shot yourself into the foot again. Scroll down in this article to where it speaks of attention whores being "energy vampires." http://thebachelorettediaries.com/2018/05/identify-and-eliminate-energy-vampires/

reply

The bigger story here is that you sent me an article from "The Bachelorette Diaries". I can't wait until you try to defend this by sending me a link to "The 90 Day Fiance Notebook" and "Millionaire Matchmaker Chronicles".

reply

So, if this content had come from Field & Stream or Popular Mechanics it would be more credible? Women are incapable of deductive reasoning while yet always being renowned for their intuition? Take it up with Google if you don't like the source of information.

The fact that I often get such a quick response from you is just more evidence that you are indeed an attention whore and hence, an "energy vampire." Also, it's no small coincidence that I made a mental connection to you and Renfield months ago.

reply

I'm not talking about credibility. I'm talking about you visiting a site called "The Bachelorette Diaries". Have you subscribed to their newsletter?

The fact that I often get such a quick response from you is just more evidence that you are indeed an attention whore

So if I answered you hours later, that wouldn't make me an attention whore?

Also, it's no small coincidence that I made a mental connection to you and Renfield months ago.

Weird considering you're mentally disconnected. "Damn you sickening clique!"

reply

You're just obfuscating, your favorite tactic, once again. Wait, you don't like that efficient "long word." You much prefer "muddying the waters", "confusing the issue", all the while masquerading as logic. You've presently been doing the same thing with kowalski and sslssg here, just dragging your face-saving arguments out on and on, more evidence of being an attention whore.

reply

Again, never said I didn't like long words. I said you use them to come off smarter than you really are. Where have I confused the issue or muddy the waters with sslssg or Kowalski? Sslssg and I are both having a polite discussion. Are we disagreeing? Sure, but that's it. Kowalski is just Kowalski. He's barely even human.

reply

You're all bitchy about my internet documented source of info about energy vampires and then randomly throw out this quote which I suppose is meant to be attributed to me: "Damn you sickening clique!" Where's the context to this obscure quote? Where's the link to where this came from?

reply

Obscure quote? You accuse so many of us of being in a sickening clique.

reply

There's that desperate, feeble, last-ditch effort of the oft admitted misanthrope here of trying to rally the very people he hates by default behind him.

reply

There's that lame excuse of claiming that I'm rallying people to come after you when you know very well you have called us a "sickening clique" many times.

reply

YOUR A DICK...KICK HIS ASS, DB.πŸ™‚

reply

Already have, time and again. That's why he's so agitated with me.

reply

You're the one who keeps replying to me when I'm not talking to or about you. You even just claimed that I disgust you. Sounds like you have a bigger issue with me than I have with you. Your next response is going to start with "there's that..." and it will probably end with (eye-roll).

reply

Putting your usual, deceitful spin onto things, especially my words. I actually said the "disgust" with you began long ago and you opened the door to that by gloating about disgusting the members here.

I also made the distinction a long time ago that a clique is a select few, but of course with your snakelike style, you just have to exaggerate and make it appear as if I'm referring to everyone.

reply

I actually said the "disgust" with you began long ago and you opened the door to that by gloating about disgusting the members here.


Yes, I'm aware of what you said. You just told me that I disgust you, I'm not sure how you're confused by that. When your disgust started doesn't change the fact you just told me that.

I also made the distinction a long time ago that a clique is a select few, but of course with your snakelike style, you just have to exaggerate and make it appear as if I'm referring to everyone.

I also made the distinction that you are the only person on this site who claims that there is a clique against them. Literally no one else, only you. That should tell you something. And I didn't say the clique was referring to everyone. I have said multiple times that most people on the site don't like you.

reply

Reading confusion into my words when there is none and there you go again, with one of your arrogant, exaggerated claims, presuming to speak on behalf of the majority of members of the entire site. I'll bet there are hundreds here that aren't even aware of me.

reply

presuming to speak on behalf of the majority of members of the entire site.

Presuming that you know how many people have DM'd me about you. I think it's hilarious that you spend so much time concerned that it's most of the people here hating you, without realizing why so many people here hate you.

reply

And I think it's really weird how an admitted misanthrope could be so obsessed with one member's supposed popularity status. And then the desperate, convenient, go to allegation of trying to label me as a troll. If a member dislikes or criticizes samoanjoes, he must be a troll.

reply

Me: "you're an asshole."

You: "Prove it."

Me: *sends you comments made in your post history*

You: "It's creepy that you're checking my post history."

Me: "You wanted proof. Okay, here are posts where people have called you an asshole".

You: "That doesn't prove it's most people."

Me: "Yeah because I can't send you DM's that were sent to me".

You: "Why are you obsessed with my popularity status?"

Me: "You asked for proof".

You: "Yeah, they're all part of a sickening clique out to get me."

Me: "You're the only person who claims to have a clique against them on this site".

You: "That proves how sickening your clique is".

reply

What a stupid, distorted, fabricated scenario and it's also additional evidence that you're an obsessed nutcase!

reply

Those were literally all your replies.

reply

It's a complete crock of shit. To begin with, I would never demand proof if someone called me an asshole because it's such an overused opinion, insult.

reply

Hear it a lot, do you?

reply

It's overused in general,
asshole.

reply

Not when referring to you, loverboy.
