I agree Laurie. I've tried the cat clippers and did not like them at all. I just use the regular sized human clippers. We have Bijou and Mika trained so well that it's no problem doing their nails anyway.

I always try to trim my kitty's nails when she is very sleepy. Otherwise, I could still do it but it would not be short of a tug of war. I wonder if anyone's kitty growl or hiss the moment you clip the nail. I don't feel pain when I clip my nail but do they? Or are they just simply uncomfortable?

well... not at the moment. but Firefox complains, by alternately growling & hissing at me when i cut hers. Cable used to, too, when she was younger.
