Mine haaaaate it. I thought they would eventually get used to it, but so far, no go.
I bathe them weekly, and try to cut at least one nail on each foot at that time. It's frustrating never getting them all "done", but I'm too cheap to pay someone else to do it! ($5 though....THAT I would give!
)
After each nail they let me do, I give them a tiny treat, such as a cheerio. I don't either scold, or do a lot of baby talking....I mostly just get down to business, and then give the loving at the end when we're done.
Welcome, and good luck!
