Dr. Jean’s Advice to Help with Phantom Pain

I reached out to Dr. Jean and she had a lot of really great advice for me. She writes an amazing blog and has tons of resources on declawing. She pointed me toward her article on relief for declawed cats which includes suggestions such as:

    Medication prescribed for nerve pain
    EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)
    Flower Essences
    Homeopathy (consult an experience homeopathic veterinarian)
    Massage and stretching protocols
    Flexor tendonectomy salvage surgery
