is taking a life-threatening risk.

At the vet's, when she gets her claws clipped, they muzzle her first. Then they sedate her. Consequently, what should be a routine, inexpensive treatment becomes an expensive one for me. I think they tack on extra charges to discourage me from bringing her in for claw clipping.

Ember is not their favorite patient. My sweet, affectionate little lady turns into a total monster in the vet's office.
