I never understood the point of ear and tail docking....
Or declawing a cat....
I hear some people have their dogs vocal cords cut so they can't bark.
Just get a fucking plant FFS... living creature is not for you.

Some people declaw their indoor cats so they don't rip up the furniture.

That practice, which involved working dogs, was once done to prevent injuries when they entered bushes. Poodles, it was done for agility purposes,to enhance their swimming speed. Ear docking was also believed to prevent infections. Most people today just do it for cosmetic. It needs to be banned!

I* would tear them apart.

Physically.

"This critter would be *perfect* if only it didn't have claws, floppy ears, a big ol' tail and make so much noise."
"So, you want to look at a fish?"
"What? No! Those tanks take up too much counter space."

"How can you expect people to clean out slimy green fish-poo soup every week when by just modifying 7 or 8 of its natural characteristics and keeping it in a metal crate for 16 hours a say this dog would be absolutely perfect. It's a cat? Well, same difference."

only time it's valid to rid a dog of most or all of its tail is if it is causing issues to the dog

Omg I’ve never heard of them having vocal cords cut 😔 I didn’t know this was a thing. I hate people sometimes.
