Just can't figure out if she is relaxed or not...
Sorry it's not a photo but I just ran across this again & couldn't resist. This is what I call her melted 'butter state' it's when nail tips get trimmed.
My cats wont let me even touch their back legs a little bit. Front paws? Sometimes OK, most regularly no. Back paws? Get your grubby human hands away!

Gypsy looks incredibly relaxed and aquiescent! If I tried that I'd get a ventilated hand very quickly:insertevillaugh:

Oh, what a gorgeous tortle! :hearthrob: :dancingblackcat::hearthrob::loveeyes:
What a sweet thing to say! She is quite new to us and we have been fattening her up! She was riddled with giardia (and probably lots of nutritional deficiencies) had a litter of 4 or 5 kittens by the time we got her (on her way back to the streets of San Jose fro whence she came. The woman who was supposed to return her just couldn't bring herself to do it. In the first picture below she had just had a litter of kittens and she's still a kitten herself 3 months later! When she arrived she was SUPER-awkward, didn't really know how to use her feet and food would fall out of her mouth when she tried to eat it, so she's come a long way. Though her name is Disco Janet, she is quite often just Bad Janet ;)

Before (just in September 2021):

After: 3 months later; the Tortitude is strong with this one.
