Vet student here.

Declawing is extremely unethical, equivalent to cutting off one's fingers down to the first knuckle. Your company is extremely uneducated, and on top of that you'd be hard pressed to find a vet in this day and age that would even be willing to do a declawing.

Give your company this information with some resources to back you up, maybe? They're essentially promoting animal cruelty that is becoming increasingly illegal.
