I was surprised he was as chill as he was. I think it helps that I adopted him when he was 4 months and I’ve handled his paws without doing anything since. Just petting them or kissing them, so he’s already pretty relaxed when I interact with his paws. I just expected him to not like the clipping itself, but yeah, no issues and hasn’t gotten caught on anything since :D
I wish I’d handled her paws more when she was a kitten. I pay someone else to do it. But admittedly, the vet requires her to be drugged before I bring her in so it’s not just me lol
Definitely way easier when they’re sedated haha, next time you go to the vet and you have to sedate her, you could enquire if they would trim her claws a bit.
But if they’re not causing issues for her then I wouldn’t stress; this is literally the first time I’d ever clipped Mickey’s claws and it was only because he was getting them caught in everything.
