I just clipped all his nails for the first time. Benjamin doesn't like being picked up or held so this was really stressful for him. I could do his back feet without holding him and just waited until he stood still and clipped a nail at a time. But for the front paws I had to wrap him in a towel and sit above him, holding him firmly but not putting any of my weight on him.
I'm pretty proud of myself, I didn't catch any of the quick although I did make sure to just do little bits at a time, but luckily I could see through his nails quite easily. Saves a trip to the vets!
The hard one to do will be Verity as she has black nails, but she doesn't need them done yet. I checked them yesterday and they're in great condition. I will use the torch method to do hers though, or get the vet to do them.
I have grey fur ALL over me now T_T
