[insert 'long-time listener, first-time caller' speech here]
Quick wank, a couple of days old. It's my first time!!

In the community cathealth, which happens to be militantly anti-declawing, someone posts a book excerpt about how cat-declawing is OMGSOIMMORALANDWRONG!!!! (And I'm sure they didn't violate any copyrights by doing that.)

The very first comment is an opposing view ("I had to do it so they could live with me"), and the vitriolic pile-up begins.

She gets one comment in her favor, and the rest of them are of the If you did that to your child, you'd be in jail (funny, I don't think there are pediatricians that perform that kind of surgery...), If I can find housing, anyone can (because housing conditions are the same in Every. City. Ever.), if you loved your cats you'd quit your job for two months to find a kitty-friendly apartment and heartbreaking statistics I got from...somewhere. *shrug* variety.

All's quiet on the cathealth front now. But I still found it worthy of being posted. I'm sure you guys will tell if I was wrong.
