This is why I have a little bottle of gabapentin in the fridge. I'm fine with the scars of playful nips and accidental scratches but sometimes a gentle manicure is needed or it's necessary to get her into the carrier and go to the vet. And just in case she's ever injured, I could ease the pain before taking her in and she wouldn't struggle and maybe injure herself more. Because pain doesn't stop a cat, they just fight harder.

We do this too. :) My maine coon has garnered a reputation at the vet. 🥲 I actually end up helping the vet since he won't bite me as hard.

We're lucky that vets around here don't bite at all.
