The best Christmas present EVER!

Well, it wasn't actually for me, it was for my dog, but as she can't use it without me, I can say it's the best one ever...

Noni's Gamma & Gampa got her the PediPaws for Christmas. She still doesn't like it, but she's getting used to it.

We have gone so long without clipping her claws (she tried to nibble/bite anyone who comes near her with clippers) that it is taking several sessions with the PediPaws to get the claws to a "normal" length.

Today, she got another nail grooming session and didn't fidget too much. I was able to do all of her claws, which is the most I've ever been able to do. I guess making sure she got a cookie after each grooming session helped her to "get over it". Now, if I could just get her to sit still for clippers...

Do they have that for cats as well? It is a disaster to trim Minou's nails... Here in The Netherlands it is by law forbidden to declaw (and personally I think you just CANNOT do that), so we trim her nails ourselves...That means Eric holding her in some kind of wrestling position and me trying to clip them... Hate it...

The same product is marketed at both cats and dogs. I know my aunt uses it on both her dog and cat and finds it easy. I'll have to ask her if she has to do the wrestler hold (of which I am familiar with) to file the cat's claws. I'll let you know.
