Need Help With Nail Trimming I can use and and all suggestions on how to go about trimming Sissy's nails. I have trimmed a few times with regular people nail clippers, but she is VERY squirmy and cries a lot (she has never bled). It is extremely difficult to hold her still and I usually stop after a nail or two because I don't want to hurt her. Is there a better way to do this? Is there something I can give her to calm her down a bit before hand (I was thinking maybe Rescue Remedy)? I groom her myself with a good pair of hair shears and she sits reasonably well for that. I'm open to any and all suggestions........ |

We've tried to wrap her in a towel as well as every hold we can think of. My sister-in-law is a vet tech and couldn't do it either!! Sissy doesn't mind having her feet played with - just don't bring out the nail clippers! |
Mine all do fine now, but one of mine would not let me at all. The Vet told us how: I had my son hold her with her back to his stomach. One hand on her middle, the other on her bottom. She felt safe and secure I guess. We only had to do that a few times and now that she knows it won't kill her, she lets me do without my son. |
