So the cats don't change attitudes then? thats all i really cared about.
what age can i get it done at and when is too old if thats even an issue?
also, what was the cost of declawing the animal? (just to get an idea.)
thanks to anyone who's replying!

My MIL just had their cat done, it was 180 dollars for non laser (Laser is WAY more expensive). The vet has always told me around 6 months is the best time (I've usually had the spaying/neutering and declawing done in the same visit. People will surely tell you different, but the only thing I ever noticed was that for about a week they tiptoed around and didnt "play" as much but after that they went back to full kitten form like nothing had happened. I've been told if you wait until after a year old, it does affect their attitude somewhat, but Im sure thats dependant on the cat, I've had two done after the one year mark and there was no difference after the recovery period
squirt guns work great for some things, but I've never had it work for clawing at stuff
