I would consider de-clawing to be more like removing a humans nails,
wouldn't it be?
Would you still be able to use your fingers? I think so. If it is going to
be strictly
an indoor cat and it's ripping your furniture apart, why not?

Actually, what the hell is the function of nails for humans anyways? I
guess, to
better pick one's nose with????????

PS; I have 3 cats and they all have their claws. They have never attacked
the
furniture. KOW.
