Real estate commission rates are always negotiable.

If someone wants to get their cat declawed, that's their decision and their money. If someone else doesn't, the same thing applies. It's really no one's business is it? And it is far from fast money for the vet, back up the statement. It's a complicated procedure that takes time to do and it has to be done right so that there aren't any complications. The animals need to be monitored for days afterwards in office because it's considered major surgery. Everyone complains about the vet pricing as if they're all living in McMansions on the money they get off of these procedures. Guess there are uninformed pet owners about that. Does everyone forget the fact that most vets pay for rent, insurance, employee benefits, and payroll? Medicine for humans is expensive, why wouldn't anyone believe it would be for pets? It's pretty much made by the same manufacturers. If you're looking for a vet who doesn't declaw, then make sure you find one that doesn't crop dogs ears and tails also. Those would fall into the same category, don't you think?
