“Veterinarians now have a way to stop destructive scratching in the home without declawing procedures or ineffective alternatives,” said Dr. Valarie V. Tynes, DVM, Dipl. ACVB, Veterinary Services Specialist at Ceva Animal Health in a statement released November 1, 2017. FELISCRATCH by FELIWAYTM, is clinically proven to stop and prevent both vertical and horizontal destructive scratching in the home. It does this by redirecting the cat to scratch his or her scratching post—not the couches and curtains.

Pet owners don’t understand that declawing is like cutting off each of their own fingers at the last knuckle,” Dr. Tynes said. “If they did, I don’t believe they would be asking for it without trying appropriate alternatives first. FELISCRATCH® is so effective many cats will not need to undergo the procedure to prevent this unwanted behavior. Decreasing the need for surgical declawing can result in improvement of feline welfare and is an issue all veterinarians should be eager to support.”
