1. Pleeeeeze come do my dog's!

I am so terrible at it. And they are too long.

2. I need to do that

3. I wish mine would let me

I usually have to wait til Plato is in a near coma. Socrates won't sit for it :eyes:. Evie desperately needs it, especially on that fused grandpa claw that's about to poke her toepad :(. Quark's nails are mostly under control. Neutrino is WAY too dangerous to even consider it. :scared:

5. Oh. That sounds tough.

My guy doesn't particularly like it but he'll tolerate it if I only do one paw in a session, and he's most resistant when I clip the dew claw.

4. Have your insurance card ready when you crawl up to the counter in the ER.

You'll save a little time.

6. Good advice.

7. It's not big deal with my cat

he actually purrs the whole time, though when i do his back feet he tries to bite the clippers

8. My wife does that to all three cats at least once a month.

They all tolerate it, though one of them will try and bit the nail clipper!

9. So long as you do it only one paw at a time.
