Brushing teeth/clipping claws

Loki has been sooooo good - amazingly so. He let me do his claws; he even let me file them down; although I did have to make sure he was occupied with a pig's ear.

He even let me have a go at brushing his teeth - for a short time anyway. I think he quite enjoyed it.

Who else cuts claws/brushes teeth?

My hubby does all the clipping, we don`t do teeth, dental chews sort that out, Rocky bolts the minute he sees Joe with the nail clippers, they don`t mind getting their tails/whiskers trimmed.

I don`t do it cos Im afraid I might hurt them-stupid I know.
