Read your title it is "declaw or no cat" You asked, we answered. Many of us choose that you should have "no cat" rather than declaw her.Originally Posted by buffalo-mitch
Ok, I didnt mean it like I will totally bar its entry from the living room!
I meant I will use tin foil and double stick tape to keep it from scratching.
Also, can people please stop telling me I sohuldnt get a pet. I'm not here telling everyone how to live their lives
The kitten is a he or a she, not an "it".
You will not be able to keep her from getting on the furniture. Cats, especially kittens, need to run and jump and climb and play. You can teach her where to scratch, and that is going to take some time, but she will still want to jump on the furniture.
It sounds like you do not have a realistic idea of what having a pet, especially a kitten, means. Our concern is for the kitten.
