My one boar, Monkey, HATES getting his nails cut. Every time I go to do it, it takes me like a half an hour to trim them. He gets very nervous and when I pick up his feet he constantly takes it back and moves around, making it nearly impossible for me to cut them. And he makes this nervous squeaking sound the whole time. I always sit my pigs down on my lap with some veggies to keep them occupied, but today Monkey just wasn't interested in the veggies. He even peed on my lap, something he has never done before.
I'm not sure what else to do. I give him veggies, I pet him and talk to him soothingly to try and get him to calm down, I am as gentle as I can be... is there anything else I can try? I hate how stressed out he seems to get, and he really needs his nails cut.
