Cats 2 - Gentle Handling & Nail Care

Does your cat swat, bite, or run when you try to trim nails or pick them up? Gentle Handling & Nail Care teaches you how to desensitize your cat to touch so handling and grooming are stress-free.

What's inside:

✅ Touch desensitization (body, paws, scruff)

✅ Nail trim training (touch paw → extend claw → trim one nail)

✅ Pick-up practice (safe, calm methods)

✅ 4-week session-by-session training plan

✅ Consent signals to watch (stay = yes, pull away = stop)

✅ Progress tracker

✅ Troubleshooting for resistant or fearful cats

✅ Daily homework: 30–60 seconds
