Once a cat/kitten has been declawed there nails will not grow back. However I must include that to have a cat/kitten declawed is one of the most painful things they surgically go threw. The process is mainly done by Fur-Parents to prevent the furbaby from scratching the furniture. This is most seen in Cats that are indoors. However to say at least if the process is done, if the cat(s) should get out it also harder for them to defend there self. Hope this helps coming from a Blessed Mami of 3 ~^.^~
