Hello both of you:
As for scratching, did she have a scratching post she liked? I know some cats don't have the right manner for children or whatnot, but a lot of times there are ways to avoid declawing. Oreo still has his claws, and yeah, he scratches us on occasion -- he even bites sometimes (when we aren't giving him enough attention), but he only claws if he's really annoyed or if he's in a playful mood. I understand that it needs to be done sometimes, I just... myeh... I couldn't ever do that to one of my pets.
I was stung by a nest of hornets when I was little... they made their nest right next to my gandparents' porch a loooong time ago, and I was a curious kid who liked playing with animals. They weren't too happy with me. >.<

i know it's not nesscesary... and no she didnt claw the scratching post. and i do understand what they have to do to declaw them. it's horrible. but i have two cats before declawed and they are ok. i know that doesn't make it any better though. but she is pretty rough with the boys and chases them around and grabs them with her paws. i just felt like it would be better. prolly the last time i will ever declaw a cat.
i was stung by a wasp when i little. crazy thing got me as soon as i stepped outside. from then on i'm afraid to be around wasps or any kind of insect with a stinger.

I wasn't trying to chastise or anything, and I know there are times when it's a necessity, I just know I couldn't do it, personally...
I've been stung, like, twenty times or so... >.> I was a very curious child (there's a reason my friends call me the "cat" of the group). Once I was stung by those icky bees that are reeaaaaaaally small and live in the ground. :( That wasn't fun.

my cats live outside so we have to keep their claws. they clawed all the way through the back of a sofa and tore up a scratching post somehow so we threw them out because they like the sunshine better anyways. Striper bites and scratches everyone though. even if you're just petting her.

Oreo was originally a barn cat, but because we live in a townhouse, we aren't allowed to let him outside unless he's on a leash, and he HATES leashes. So we tend to just let him go crazy in the house... he's learned, for the most part, what he can scratch (his scratching post/the floor) and what he can't scratch (furniture). :D

I wanted to name him "Pepe" after "Pepe le Peu", but my Mum and Erin wouldn't allow it. My voice professor had named him Cookie for the short time she had him, so we just changed it to "Oreo" instead. He is black (thought he color is technically called "blue" on cats) and white, he's a Maine Coon... but the big deciding factor was that he has two half-circles of black on each leg, so when you put his paws together they make a whole circle -- an oreo cookie!

=chuckles= Yeah, Maine Coons are wonderful. They're great family cats, too. And mine was around here just a moment ago, but seems to have wandered off... my sister says he's in the wicker laundry basket we keep under my Mum's end table, sleeping in it (we made a bed out of it for him, he seems to love it).
He's a big loveable fluffball. I wurves him sooooo much. He's about seven now, if I remember right. But he's still a big kitten at heart.
My neighbor just got a couple kittens, though, and they are adorable. Molly and Moshe (Moses in Hebrew). They're a siamese-ragdoll mix.
I'm watching "The Little Mermaid" right now, and I can't help wanting to smack Ariel upside the head. She was only fifteen in the film. >.> Thick-headed teenager (I am allowed to say this because I still qualify as a teenager, even if I am technically a legal adult). XD
