Yes, it was the time to do the dreaded CLAW TRIMMING!
So, yesterday I noticed Lily's back claws were a bit too long, so for the first time I got my mum to hold her up to her chest and I trim, Lily was easy, not too much bother to do. Very good.
And today I noticed Lola's back claws could do with doing, so did the same for her, however I couldn't even do one nail because she is very wriggly and hates being in the upright position.

And when she's in her normal sitting position, she will just kick you if you try to trim her nails. So I'm not sure what her tactics to use, I was think about my friend who trims her own piggies claws to come round and help. Any advice? You see by the time I get the clippers in a good position on her, she then starts to wriggle and I don't want to clip in case she suddenly moves, then I will be sorry. :ple:
