Hi everyone,
We recently adopted our 3 year old Panko from a humane society in rural Kentucky. He's a very sweet, relaxed, and mild mannered boy. Everything has been going well aside from something we noticed when we went to trim his nails tonight. Horrifyingly, his last owners declawed his front paws! We weren't told this information upon adoption nor is it in any of his paperwork, which honestly just gives me the worst ick feeling.
So as the new human to a declawed adult kitty, is there advice as to what things I can do/products i can buy to make him more comfortable? I've done some research into some of the problems that can ensue from declawing, but there aren't very many articles that explain what I can do for those issues should they come up. I want to be prepared just in case!
