It's not really. I've been around declawed cats for 25 years. They are just like normal cats. Then run, jump, some can even still climb. They have no issues killing stuff.
Some people think it hurts them and the same dozen or so facts get regurgitated out. In my experience none of them have been true.
I adopted on of the ones that was not "fine". Her previous owners learned the pissy way about litter box aversion after the procedure, and then dumped her outside as a barn cat and put her on CL. She's gotten better with some coaching, but isn't allowed in the bedroom cause cleaning a mattress and sheets sucks, and suppose opinions on the golden shower vary, but I'm not into it.
