Secondly, neutering is good. It increases a cat's life span and makes the animal generally healthier. It also helps to reduce the population of feral cats.
Lastly, animals don't have a 'sex life' as you imagine it.

Wait what? They do that? I thought by declawing, you meant using a nailcutter or something to cut the tips of the claws. I don't like either. There are scratching poles, they seldom use. Easy to make at home even.
As to a sex life, by human standards they are pretty much S&M.
Regarding the comparision between neutering and declawing, it is plain silly. One is an elective surgery the other is a matter of public health. I will always put my species above others.
A couple of cats can generate like 10 K cats in 10 years. That is a lot of cat shit, more worrysome in urban areas.
