Call your vet clinic. They often provide a 24/7 emergency number to contact. Find an emergency clinic and get her to it.

If you have someone to help you, wrap the cat in a towel and then hold the cat by the scruff of the neck........the other person will need to unwrap several(6-10) gauze pads and wrap them around(one by one) the foot of the cat.....these will be the basis of the bandage, use several......then take so 1 '' white bandage tape torn into 3 or 4 pieces about 5 inches long.....place one piece of tape the length of the first paw (up the front and around the end of the paw and then up the back), then put the next one slightly to the side of the other but in the same way. Then take the roll of white tape and tear off more pieces 6 '' long and start at the toes of the foot, wrap tightly going up the foot to just a bit over the wrist, do this until the foot is completely wrapped and you don't have any bleed thru. Then start on the second foot. The cat is not going to like this it will be painful, the feet were wrapped while the cat was under anesthesia......Call the vet when they open and ask them to check your cat. Do not give any tylenol, asprin or Ibuprophen as these are all highly toxic to cats.
Good luck.

At least try to stop the bleeding on the paws if you can - wrap them, apply gentle pressure if the cat will let you, anything to keep them from bleeding as much. Right now, the bleeding is the immediate danger. The shaking is probably from being shocky.
Have you tried searching for emergency vet centers near you on the net? You might have a better chance of finding one that way than calling.

Here in England it's illegal to have a cat declawed due to the cruelty involved. Anyone that did could be charged with an offence of cruelty to animals. Since part of the cat's paw is actually cut off when they are declawed it's not surprising that the cat is in pain and experiencing problems.
Is there a cat charity that you you can phone that gives emergency advice?
Most vets have an emergency number on their ansaphone when they are closed.
Just keep trying different vets and animal charities until you find one.

try to stem the blood flow with gently pressure to the wound with a clean cloth and call all the vets that you can find in the phone book.
and its not bull**it, it is inhumane to de-claw, why have part of your cat chopped off so that it fits in better with your lifestyle? Shouldn't bloody have one in the first place. For your cats sake I hope you find a vet

You need to contact your vet clinic. Of course he is shaking and crying because he is losing blood. I am surprised they did not suture or glue the sockets. Try to keep the baby calm as well and apply direct pressure.

At the pet store you can get Stop Bleed and it will stop the bleeding on your cats paws. What you also can do is to put gauze on the cats paws and put direct pressure on the cats paws to stop the bleeding. I had to do the with my cat and it helped. I hope your cat is going to get better. Stop Bleed is a powder or a liquid.

if you cant bandage the cat up so he doesnt bleed to death and you cant get a bleeping vet then you can let your cat die and stop behaving like a child. what kind of help do you expect on YAHOO.

dumbazz...you shouldn't have declawed.
A vet it the only person who can help. They should have an emergency # or there should be an emergency clinic somewhere. Otherwise, I have no idea how to help. Unless you know how to stitch?

You can get off your butt and go to the vet.
Edit: Hey, kid. YOU caused this problem. YOU fix it. It wouldnt have even gotten to this if you would have left the cat and his body parts alone. Now stop being a smarta** and take our advice OR you can just sit back in your computer chair and watch your cat bleed to death. The choice is yours, dear.
