    The procedure can be medically necessary in certain cases, like when a cat has a cancerous tumor or has severely injured a paw. But Tacoma’s ban won’t interfere with surgeries like that, the council’s release said.

    Maybe this is what they’re referencing

      I was just riffing on the ambiguous article headline. Like it’s okay to declaw cats as long as it’s for therapeutic reasons (for the owner)

      Yeah my parents back in the days had a lot of cats, and one of them had to have the claws taken off one paw. 😢
