As odd as this is going to sound, I think Mowgli likes having his nails trimmed. He never raises any kind of fuss when he gets a trim. I just wait for him to lay like that in my arms, check his nails, grab the clippers and snip snip snip! Though he does kick a little when I do his back legs.

He's never given me any problems with nail trimming. Zelda, on the other hand, turns into a little wiggle worm. Even when her nails get long enough that she's sticking to the carpet every other step, I still have to wrestle a little to get her trimmed.
