Cat's Claws Update

Jon went on the web looking into neighboring countries laws on declawing cats with the hopes that we could get little Mittens fixed up on this side of the pond. What he found was that declawing had been legal in the Netherlands a little while back (couldnt find the year of the change), but had since been banned as cruelty to animals. He also found out that it is illegal in the entire European Union and that to join the EU a country must make declawing illegal. I never realized how far-reaching the EU laws extended into the sovereignty of each country.
