My sister's cat is a very nice cat but he tends to scram a lot when playing. My sister was told that it is because he is playing 'passionately' (whatever that means :? )

Daisy - my moggie with mental probs - is like that she can't play without having her claws out! It hurts too!

Cassie is a bit like that too! I will never play with her while she is lying down because I know I'm guaranteed to get a scratch!

Abbi, as they're indoor cats do you have to clip Amber and Archie's claws?
Abbi

It must be quite difficult to cut their nails. Do you use ordinary nail clippers or special clippers?
Abbi
11-01-2005, 08:22 PM
Special ones - it has a little hole in the end - you just have to be careful you dont cut too far back otherwise they bleed - never done that - thank god!

I clip Cheetahs Claws and shes as good as gold - but when we got Rocky I thought I'd better let her keep her weapons for self defence! (not that shes ever needed them!) Will have to clip them again soon tho!

So if I get a cat can I call on you Azz to cut the nails for me :D
Mags

Abs it was hilarious. Azz nearly ended up with a pc in his back garden that night.

Me and Paul had a virus on our system so we went to reload windows onto it and it wouldn't let us. We tried to fix it but it was a no-go and I nearly booted the pc outta the window :lol:

We did try didn't we Azz?

As I'm not at all computer minded, Azz talked me through setting up Broadband.....I didn't know what on earth I was doing but I just followed his instructions and hey presto we did it!! Thanks again Azz!

Mags
