Khloé Kardashian Blasted Online After Admitting 'Terrible' Decision to Declaw Her Cats
She said the procedure left her pets unable to defend themselves and called bringing a second kitten home a mistake after the cats began fighting.
- On Wednesday, May 20, 41-year-old reality star Khloé Kardashian revealed on her "Khloé In Wonder Land" podcast that she had her two cats, Grey Kitty and Baby Kitty, declawed and now regrets the decision.
- Kardashian explained she was "really misadvised" about the procedure, which involves surgical amputation of a cat's third phalanges and attached claws, leaving her feeling "really, really terrible" about the outcome.
- The American Veterinary Medical Association "strongly discourages" declawing due to chronic pain risks, while Kardashian now monitors her pets with tracking AirTags because she fears they "lost their protection tools."
- Social media users and animal advocates criticized Kardashian, arguing declawing is unnecessary and inhumane, with commenters expressing frustration that the practice remains legal in some areas despite veterinary opposition.
- California banned declawing for non-therapeutic purposes in 2025, joining New York and Massachusetts; while Kardashian reportedly lives in Hidden Hills, an independent city within Los Angeles, the procedure faces increasing restrictions nationwide.
