Fatso has his claws, and whoever had him as a kitten got him used to nail clippers so I trim his nails when I trim Rizzo's. His are much easier because they're clear. It'll definitely be important to get the kitten used to clippers early on. I think the main problem when Rizz plays with a kitten is the cats claws get caught in his threads, generally around the face so he winds up dragging the poor kitty around accidentally. Since you have two pups, it's best to introduce the kitten to one pup at a time, rather than letting both of them just run up to him/her to investigate. The kitten may run and the yorkie instincts may kick in. **Just my 2 cents.**
Good luck, I love little kitties! and my big ol' Fatso-kitty is wonderful. |
