I have two cats, neither of them like getting their nails clipped. Since they were kittens, I have clipped their nails and then when they are both done, they each get a treat. I don't give them treats otherwise. So now when I pull out the nail clippers, they come running, they still whine and complain but they pretty much sit still (stern words work when they squirm a little) because they know that they'll get a treat in the end. Good luck.
