Legislation has been filed in the Florida Senate that would outlaw declawing of cats in the state except under certain circumstances. The bill would impose fines of $1,000 on veterinarians who declaw cats when it is not medically necessary. There are exemptions for infections or disease that might make it necessary to declaw a cat. The bill is filed for the 2020 Florida session, which begins in January.
