Rod Hartwick, DVM self-proclaimed "Father" of Laser Declaw Procedure. Promoted a high-tech method of mutilating cats. As a child, he pulled the wings off flies. |

Edgar Folkers, DVM of Mission Viejo, CA called the idea of banning declawing "ridiculous" and "hysterical." He says "Cats don't need claws," and declaws a third of the cats in his practice - for fees of $245 to $350. |

John S. Parker, DVM (not actual photo) of Novi, MI wrote a letter to JAVMA calling declaw opponents "PETA left-wing extremists," "emotional," and "silly." He frequently submits his rants to veterinary journals. |

Joan Miller of Cat Fanciers Association The CFA loves cats, like you might love your car or a favorite shirt or some other piece of property, because to the CFA, that's what a cat is...property. Miller was nearly hysterical when a bill that planned to abolish declawing was introduced in California. |
