Re: [PyrNet-L] nervous paws

[Joy Mccarron <jemc@monmouth.com>]

I do Maggie's nails once a week or so.  As soon as I go to the cabinet to
get the clippers SHE refuses to come near me.  Even cookies don't work.  She
has to be DRAGGED.  She will run around the house for me to catch
her....funny!!!!   But as soon as "get " her wedged against a cabinet she is
fine!!!  I always tell her "you don't HAVE to like it, but it has to be
done".  She doesn't believe me and would rather have claws!!!  At 6 1/2
you'd think she'd be used to it??  Ah well,  I love her anyway.   Joy
