I try to trap my victim in a small room or hallway and shut the doors. Once they are trapped, they usually give up. Have you the ability to trap her in the bathroom? Feed her a couple of days in a row, in that room then on the day of the office visit, you should have no problem. You should also wear gloves if she is a biter. As far as clipping nails, I've given up. I count on them using the scratching posts and keeping their nails in good shape that way.

It is much easier to have two people to do the nail clipping, if that is possible.

We all feel your pain!
