Bill Prohibiting the Declawing of Cats in Illinois Passed State House
The stage has been set for the state of Illinois to become part of the growing trend to ban the controversial procedure known as cat declawing, and animal activists couldn’t be happier. If enacted, the proposed bill would essentially make it illegal to declaw cats outside of an established therapeutic purpose.
