Hooray for Jody Patilla!  It is absolutely vital to have your animal
spayed or neutered.  It is not cruel, but a kindness.  Here in Denver,
the figure is unfortunately not half that is destroyed at the Denver
Dumb Freinds League (Humane Society), but 70-75% according to their
newsletters.  

As for declawing, I would strongly recommend a tight-weave carpet-
covered kitty-condo or scratching post, as my cats who were going for
the stairway carpeting, took right to it.  They don't touch the
shag carpet covered one I have.

[O.K., off soapbox]

Thanks.
BJC
