And she was NOT happy!!!
She doesn't like being picked up at the best of times, so to have to hold her and put the soft claws on, she wailed, hissed, growled and squirmed
She's SUCH a little performer!

Lily went first, and as usual, she smelt the glue and went into hide mode, but we eventually got her, and did her claws. She's easy, once she's scruffed, she just freezes and doesn't move except for occasional shaking from fear (
). Once she's done though, she hides for a bit, then she's fine again.

As soon as we were done with Smudge, we put her in the cupboard where Lily was hiding so she could sulk as well, but she ran back out and stretched up my leg to see what I was doing


Stumpy was next, and she's also a squirmer, but luckily most of her claws were already trimmed, so it wasn't too bad.

So all 3 girls are done, and I think Miss Smudge is going to get a rude shock next time she goes to climb the scratching post, or tries to climb our legs.

So it was kitty salon night?

Did you use a bright color? and if so do we get any pictures of their cute toes?

They usually get pink, but a friend got a bulk pack, and gave me a pack of blue ones, so that's what they have at the moment
I'll try for photos tomorrow night!

I hate putting soft claws on. Zebra is sooo squirmy and she will not sit still for more than about 10 seconds. Milo isn't so bad, but still not fun to put them on him
