I have an older cat, I adopted who was never groomed. 🙀im a “crazy cat lady, too.”and have never been able to trim her nails! your table method is gold! I'm going to try.
You make it look so easy! My cat won't even sit in my lap without protest. She's a prima donna. Great video, though, I will need to work on my cat's temperament for this.
You dont “work” on your cats temperament. Your cat is like it is. Better to search for a way that is comfy for your cat. Dont put the cat in your lap when it doesnt want to.
Initially came here for the trimming part, but I forgot about that shit and got sucked into Liz’s personality 😂 Dude, you could have your own show, and I would watch it. Thanks for the lols!
We did it!! Thank you! Our 20-year old cat could barely walk - he’s never had to have claws trimmed b/c he spent time outside, but as he’s aged, he doesn’t want to go out anymore. His claws were out of control. We were shocked, but he actually let us just pet him and trim the nails (it did take two people for the living and the trimming). And the beer def helped! Thanks so much!! 🎉🥳
My wife and I really were surprised how informative as well as so funny. You really made me laugh out loud with the "drink" comment. Also I thought the suggestion to start touching their paws so they get desensitized. I guess my cat could join me in beer as an alternate means of desensitizing. Great Job. We bet you are a lot of fun and you probably have lots of friends. Mickey and Sophia
Thank you!! I used your tip for the difficult cat with the treats and this was the first time I’ve ever been able to cut my cats nails! She will hardly even let me pet her so this was a big help!
Caroline Cain, you talked me into trying nail cutting with treats. (Tried it without treats, and kitty won't come near me when she hears me lay the nail clippers down, and I tried to be real quiet too. Kitty's hearing is excellent.).
Well I tried. Results- cat treats consumed= a butt load. Nails clipped= zero. Cute video though! Am 10 years sober so I had to skip the alcohol. May have to go back to drinking. LOL
Lmfao I'm over 5 years clean and sober so i just cracked a red bull still can't do it. Only time I can ever sneak some clips in if when my baby is on her cat tree and her paws are dangling lmao but even then it's hard cos I have to trick her haha
literally here drinking a glass of wine looking up how to trim my new 7 year old cats nails for the first time.. You earned a subscription for sure. You have a great nerdy beauty thing going on too. thumbs up!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! This helped me trim my cat's nails for the first time ever. I have a crazy, psycho cat, and even the groomer refuses to work on him. Miracles do happen!
“Find a friend who has a cat you can practice on.”: the feline version of babysitting providing a glimpse into parenthood. Best cat nail trim video of the (eek!) many I watched tonight, and ditto the previous comment: came for title, stayed and liked for personality and clear, concise info. Thank you!👍🏼👍🏼
This is exactly what I needed. I'm only 1 1/2 tall cans in, trying to figure out the best way to tackle this monumental task for the first time. Finally a video that knows where I'm coming from 😆 Cheers!
My cat is still in the kitten ages she’s 8 months old and she doesn’t like nail trimming AT ALL but I tried the technique you used for Smirnoff and was able to trim all toes except one in one sitting this time! Normally I can only get 1 or 2 at a time! Thank you for your video I am now more excited and optimistic about the nail trimming process!!
i tried this and my cat just bites my hands when i grab his paws and then when i tried to get him sit on my lap he just sticks his claws onto my legs and jumps away
This video (and you) are HILARIOUS!!!!! I have never seen the treats on the table trick - brilliant! Gonna try it! I have a psycho crazy cat - maybe it will work!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you Liz!! I cut my rescue’s nails for the first time following your guide and I got 3 out of 4 feet done but the 4th was a back and like you said they weren’t as bad. It only took an open can of tuna. He only got pieces but the open can was in front of him as an incentive and it worked like a charm! 🥳👏🏻
I came for the title and stayed for the personality too, lol. Great tips. As a crazy cat lady, I'll have to figure out how to trim my three cats too. Thanks!
I’ve contemplated getting back with my ex husband over this because we had a great system, cutting our cats nails.... They would’ve had well pedicured nails, but that would’ve lasted with me potentially on trial for his murder 😂
@@amandaramalho6609 Hahahaha yes! Btw I caved and hired one of my vet techs and she comes to my house every 5 weeks. Have you tried liquid gabapentin? We give them a lil to help sedate them. Ask your vet for some!
Great video! My cat is awful getting her nails trimmed and a trip to the vet today thinking they could handle it just made it 10x worse so now I'm determined to gain her trust back and do it myself. Under the table! Genius! At the moment I'm just giving treats and touching her paws calmly, squeezing out the claws. Hopefully a few days of that I can do my first trim myself :) just need to get some wine beforehand.....
First inside cat (all my other cats were in childhood in a tiny countryside town) so I have been searching a billion videos for nail trims. My 10 day adoptee 13month old is a sweet goofball but squirmy when I trimmed dewclaws. So these were some great tips and hilarious to watch. 😂
This was phenomenal!!! 😹 I'm getting ready to trim both my and my kids' cats' nails, a feat which I've never attempted. Since my big boy (Indiana) has accidentally scratched his face up a bit with his hind paws, it felt about time. Although my mom gave me a quick tutorial, I wanted to double check that I'd be doing it correctly. Thanks for the tips, humor, and knowledge. I feel better already about chasing down some kitty toes!
You are FUN! Best cat nail clipping tutorial I’ve seen yet. I’ll be running out to the store for a six pack of Bud Light today and then let the cat nail clipping party begin.😹
You are such a treat. I love watching you with your cats. I am learning how to do my cat's nails, and I'm having a rough go of it. I saw one video where they suggested the burrito method, and I decided my cat wouldn't appreciate it, so I aint doing that. I will try to be more patient, and will definitely try your method. Thanks so much. Jojo from Mississauga Ontario Canada.
Great tutorial! I just trimmed my 4 year old cats nails for the first time successfully. We had a frank conversation about it’s me or the vet. Pick your poison. The desensitization thing can help at any age! When she’s feeling snuggly I touch her paws and after all this time she still hates it but knows I’m not a threat 🙂🤓
This is a cute video. Thank you for the way that you presented it, I just got a kitty after going without one for several years, and i am going to be successful at trimming its nails if its the last thing i do.
Oh my gosh! This is me bringing the cat to the vet horrible experience bringing the cat to the groomer. Shut in for covid-19 need to learn how to do this myself. I'm the one with the crazy cat I didn'get as kitten! Thanks Liz very entertaining!
My cat becomes so aggressive when nail trimming. She doesn't care about treats. She just goes ballistic. We can't even wrap her in a towel. Smh. But great video lol 😆
Thanks for the video. I just became a cat daddy today to two rescue sisters and also picked up some good stout. I don't see trimming their nails anytime soon tho, need some snuggle time before that happens I think.
You are definitely adorable! Lovely video! But,... my cat is way too nervous for a trim from me! The Vet does it in 2 seconds though! Thank you SO MUCH for a fun video!
Great tips for many cats, I'm sure. With our "Pepper" cat (part Savannah, part Maine Coon and more), as I *gently* press to extend her claw, the INSTANT the nail trimmer comes in contact with the claw, she goes BALLISTIC! She looks similar to your cat in the video, very sweet most of the time. MUCH more aggressive when it's claw trimming time. Will try the treats/ under the table trick next. Pepper does love to play when I tease her, without using the scalpels (aka claws). Desensitize? Not a chance. I've done that since she was a kitten. Still no joy. Just much caution. As "onlyoatmeal" mentioned: "Came for the title, stayed for the personality and tips!" Same here! Really enjoyed your video! My wife has a t-shirt which aptly reads: "I love my cats, and maybe three other people." I'm fortunate I'm one of the three others (I think).
Maybe it’d be appropriate with a vet visit? I don’t doubt some cats are just not gonna tolerate it because of their personality, but in your case I’d probably see a vet to make sure the issue isn’t that she’s hurting in some way and that being the reason she freaks out whenever you touch her claws.
Came for the title, stayed for the personality and tips!
Same.
BEST . CAT . VIDEO . EVER. After watching this I went out and looked for stray cats just so I could trim their nails!
I have an older cat, I adopted who was never groomed. 🙀im a “crazy cat lady, too.”and have never been able to trim her nails! your table method is gold! I'm going to try.
I was just able to do the drinking part.
Stumbling on the twelve steps, huh?
🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahahahahah
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣😅
...me too 🥺
"But if you're a crazy cat lady like me, you may not have any friends..."
-LMAO!
Hehe
I loved it 😂😂😂
😹😹😹
Me too….. true story
😂
You make it look so easy! My cat won't even sit in my lap without protest. She's a prima donna. Great video, though, I will need to work on my cat's temperament for this.
Michelle Rose lol let me know how the changing tempement goes. Especially a cats
Give him beer too.
Well, unless he's a violent drunk.
@@Neem0Mar hahhahhahahaha
You dont “work” on your cats temperament. Your cat is like it is. Better to search for a way that is comfy for your cat. Dont put the cat in your lap when it doesnt want to.
sit on lap? What is that? Took us 1 yr 1 month and 11 days just to get her to sleep on my boobs! I will keep trying
Initially came here for the trimming part, but I forgot about that shit and got sucked into Liz’s personality 😂 Dude, you could have your own show, and I would watch it. Thanks for the lols!
I don't think this cat qualifies as an unfriendly cat for nail trimming.
Me to my cat is unfriendly he hisses and scratches the vet even gave up
Right!!! She should use my cat. Would be very entertaining
If she tried with my cat, she would be bleeding profusely. Useless video.
This thread is cracking me up 😂
Love your no-restraint approach with practical tips for not dying in the process. Thanks!!
I use stealth mode...trim while kitty sleeps
Me and my mom used to do that but hes gotten older now and smarter
I get 2 or 3 nails trimmed before cat wakes up and the fight begins.😖
Yah that doesn’t work either. 2 clips and shes up.
orviskid I can’t even get one clip when she’s in deep sleep :(
We did it!! Thank you! Our 20-year old cat could barely walk - he’s never had to have claws trimmed b/c he spent time outside, but as he’s aged, he doesn’t want to go out anymore.

I don't believe you have no friends, you are brilliant! Hilarious yet matter of fact approach certainly won me over. Love to you and your cats!
Well I tried. Results- cat treats consumed= a butt load. Nails clipped= zero. Cute video though! Am 10 years sober so I had to skip the alcohol. May have to go back to drinking. LOL
Cheryl I agree. No way to trim our cats with wrapping then like a burrito.
Lmfao I'm over 5 years clean and sober so i just cracked a red bull still can't do it. Only time I can ever sneak some clips in if when my baby is on her cat tree and her paws are dangling lmao but even then it's hard cos I have to trick her haha

Wow that tip with Smirnoff was just GENIUS!! THANK YOU!!
Your channel name combines two of the things I love most on this earth ❤ miss your vids but may all be well for you in all aspects of life.

this was wild from start to finish 😭😭
Lmfao

This was phenomenal!!! 😹 I'm getting ready to trim both my and my kids' cats' nails, a feat which I've never attempted.

Thanks for the tips, humor, and knowledge. I feel better already about chasing down some kitty toes!
This was very helpful, thank you. I've been nervous about starting this training.
Your energy is amazing!
Never thought of the treats on the table! Will try and this time with a beer! Super cute video! Thanks!
Good advice! Thank you for taking the time to share your wisdom.

Thanks, Crazy Cat Lady. You are the most!
OMG...you are so cute! Loved this video.
Great video, I love the drinking option.
Thanks for the laffs and ideas. Treats and getting them used to gentle paw & claw touches, when they are half asleep, helps.
