I do my two's nails myself. It's not easy, they're both wiggle-worms and scream bloody murder - you'd think I was killing them! I wonder what my neighbors think but it's a lot cheaper than having the vet do them and it's realy not THAT difficult.

I find the small scissor-type of clippers easier to use.

My RB Goldie was impossible to do - one time it took THREE techs at the vet's office to hold her down to clip her nails while she yeowled I do miss her.
