My little guy is about 3.5-4 months old and his nails are getting SHARP. I have razor sharp nail clippers that are small for trimming bird's nails. I attempted to trim my boy's but only managed to get 1 foot sorta done before he got so upset with me that he was puffing up.
He hasn't had his nails trimmed before so I know its a new/scary concept for him. The thing is they have to be done...but how to introduce him to it without over stressing? Should I touch/play with his feet more so he's more comfortable with me touching them?
I know only to cut the very tip off to avoid cutting the quick part and can clearly see/cut the tip and know how to do it but getting him to be comfortable with it...is another story. Any tips/ideas?
