    @thunderbird8588: I realy hate to argue and i realy think opinion is so divided that people will have to agree to dissagree. I dont want to cause offence but must say that IMO most cats scratch to communicate there is a problem and they are unhappy. I can pet our cats without fear of being scratched. My neighbours cat however who is in our house more often than not is the type who will lash out and scratch. When stroking her we watch out for the signs. I know some cats are feisty , some scratch, some bite but we cant remove their teeth. As for de barking Dogs (something i have only just become aware of on the forum) why on earth would anyone want to do this. Maybe my views are idealistic but i do believe animals should be left as nature intended if at all possible If your neighbor has a cat that cannot be trusted to be petted w/out scratching or biting, they have a bigger issue than to declaw or not.

    Since I am in Virginia, I thought I'd see what laws are on the books here…I don't want to get in trouble while I'm in the state: State Laws: There is a state law prohibiting “corrupt practices of bribery by any person other than candidates." Driving while not wearing shoes is prohibited. It is illegal to tickle women. Cities: Culpeper No one may wash a mule on the sidewalk. Waynesboro It is illegal for a woman to drive a car up Main Street unless her husband is walking in front of the car waving a red flag. Richmond It is illegal to flip a coin in a restaurant to see who pays for the coffee. Norfolk You may not spit on a seagull.

    I do rescue, so I do like spay/neuter, but these folks who are breeding for aggressiveness won't pay any attention to any of the laws that are passed. However, putting them in jail should get their attention. Pits are a good dogs but can be bred into a fighting dog. Basenjis are now good breeds, but anyone who has done rescue, or owned a "damaged" basenji knows they will bite and that can do damage! We need to put the responsiblity on the bad owners who breed for fighting dogs or even the BAD breeders who breed defective dogs and know it, and sell them anyway. Puppy lemon law anyone??? That shouldn't hurt the good breeders who have "something" come up, but the breeders who consistantly have sick/bad dogs… Just a thought.
