Solutions to cats that won’t let their nails be cut:

1. Choose appropriate tools for your cat. Do not use human nail clippers, which may cause damage during trimming. Sometimes the cat's nails break, causing the cat to feel pain, so it doesn't like to cut its nails.

2. Do not force the cat during nail clipping, or even pull hard or reprimand the cat loudly. This will leave a psychological shadow on the cat. The owner can use snacks to distract the cat.

3. Wrap the cat in a blanket and expose only its claws. The cat will stay still and let the owner trim its nails. But this method is only suitable for cats who are not so grumpy.

4. You can secretly trim the cat's nails while the cat is sleeping. The movements must be gentle and quick. This method may take several times to completely trim the nails.

5. The owner can often stroke the cat’s paws and often touch the cat’s nails with nail clippers. It is best to train for ten minutes every day to reduce the cat’s fear of nail clippers.
