A few days ago, Larry was being especially mellow, and he was lolling around on the couch next to me. I kept touching his paws, and pressing them, so his claws appeared.
"Hmmm...", I thought. If he's this relaxed, I wonder if he'd let me clip his claws?
So I got the nail clipper, sat down next to him again, he was purring and very relaxed, and I just clipped away, talking to him soothingly as I did it.
I got all of his front claws!!! It was like he never even noticed!!! This is a cat who was feral, on the streets of Brooklyn, not even 12 months ago!
Yay.
