Article: . With your cat snugly in the bag, you will probably have an easier time trimming her nails. Depending on the design of the bag, you may have to unzip a small zipper to open a small access hole through which you will pull one of your cat’s legs. Touch and massage your cat’s claws to relax her before you start trimming her nails.  There are different options for nail clippers, including human nail clippers, and pet-specific ‘guillotine’ or ‘scissor’ style clippers. Use whichever type you are comfortable with. Take your cat’s paw in one hand and gently squeeze with your thumb and finger on the joint just behind the nail to extend the nail. Trim just the tip of the nail. This will prevent you from accidentally cutting the quick, which would be very painful for your cat and cause the nail to bleed.  If the nail starts to bleed, dab the tip of it in some cornstarch or styptic powder (available at your local pharmacy). . Cats do not like things going in their eyes, so having your cat safely restrained in the comfort bag will make the process go a little more smoothly. Hold her in your lap, with your non-dominant arm draped across her body, to make her feel more comfortable.  Cup your cat’s head in your non-dominant hand, with your thumb and other fingers under her lower jaw. Tilt her head upward.   Pull the bottom of the eyelid down with the thumb of your non-dominant hand. Administer the prescribed number of drops into her eye, making sure not to touch her eye with the applicator tip.  Give your cat a treat after you give her the eye drops. To handle your cat’s ears, hold her in lap as you would if you were giving her eye drops. Wrap your non-dominant hand around the side of your cat’s head, opposite of the ear you want to work on. Use the thumb of that hand to hold down the ear. To clean the ear, use the ear cleaning solution recommended by your veterinarian.  Squeeze some drops onto the inside of the earflap, as well as down into the ear canal. Your cat may start shaking her head, creating a mess as the solution flies out of her ear.  Gently massage the base of your cat’s ear with your thumb and index finger to ensure the solution reaches down into her ear.  Use a cotton ball to gently swab the inside of her ear to remove any debris or discharge.  To medicate her ears, use the same method as you did to clean her ears. Make you give the medication  after  her ears are clean. Having your cat in a comfort bag will make it a little easier to give your cat a pill, but be aware that she could still try to bite you. To give her a pill, position her such that her body is facing away from you. Place your non-dominant hand on top of her head, with your thumb and fingers facing down on either side of her to keep her head still. Tilt her head upward.  With your dominant hand, hold the pill between your thumb and index finger and use your middle finger to pull down on her lower jaw and open her mouth.  Once you have her mouth open, quickly place the pill as far back on the center of her tongue as you can manage without getting bitten. Hold her mouth closed and rub on her throat to get her to swallow the pill.  Don’t be surprised if she spits the pill back out. You can keep trying if your cat isn’t biting you.
