Is it safe to sign change.org petitions? I would like to, but I don’t trust them.

You do get put on to emailing lists. I use a fake email, then I unsub., and make sure to erase the cookies.

Yes, I‘ve signed at least 20 petitions on there and nothing has come of it besides my name being added to different groups of supporters. Declawing is an awful practice, the equivalent of cutting off the first third of all of one’s fingers, and I definitely encourage signing this petition.

I know, declawing is an abomination (thank god it’s illegal in Australia), that’s why I want to sign.

Edit- signed.

Before I knew better (and because, stupidly...I had a waterbed), I used to declaw my cats. I learned about what actually happens and I will never declaw another cat. My kitty and I have learned together how to trim claws safely together...

It’s very easy to make mistakes when you are misinformed. Good on you for changing your view and improving cats‘ lives :)

Our goal is to provide a friendly and supportive space for the women of Ovarit. This circle is not a "safe space," but it is and will always be a female-only space. This means if you are not female, you will be banned.

This is a general interest discussion community for women. Women can discuss most topics here. Rants, raves, interesting links, career advice, relationship advice, hobbies, interests, chit chat, pet pics, as long as you're a woman and it's not disallowed below it's all free to go here.

Before posting, please check the list below of other women-only circles to make sure there isn't a community that is dedicated to the topic.

If any part of your text / link post is about trans, post it to o/GenderCritical. Trans related image posts go in o/TransLogic or o/Radfemmery.

If you post about trans topics in o/Women your post may be locked and / or deleted. We cannot move posts around.
