No need - a towel and a firm grip on the cat's shoulder's will make it impossible for the cat to get its claws into anything that matters. Even if the cat was more of a gymnast than any of mine have ever been, trimming the claws with nail-clippers would do it. Warm water won't bother it as much, either (cold water will make it *angry*). De-clawing a cat is a pretty unkind thing to do; sometimes it's necessary, but not in this case. -- Tom Fitzgerald Wang Labs fitz@wang.com "I went to the universe today; 1-508-967-5278 Lowell MA, USA It was closed...."
