Chapter 2: Nails, ears and eye cleaning without stress

Trimming nails regularly prevents them from becoming overgrown and snagging on carpets or curtains. Use a pair of cat‑specific nail clippers and aim to cut only the clear, sharp tip of the nail, avoiding the pink quick. A calm environment, a gentle hold and a treat afterward help keep the experience positive.

Ears and eyes also need occasional attention. Inspect the ears for any dark buildup or odor; if present, clean gently with a vet‑approved ear solution on a cotton ball, never inserting anything deep into the ear canal. For eyes, a soft, damp cloth can wipe away any discharge, always moving from the inner corner outward.
