Well I finally bit the bullet, and trimmed the girls nails on my own. Each and every nail on both of them, trimmed. Some are longer than I'd like, and one was shorter than I'd like (oops), but I managed it, and I managed it alone. I'm pretty impressed with myself!
Daisy was an absolute angel (as always), barely any wriggling, didn't even have to towel burrito her, and not a squeak or pull even once!
Minnie, on the other hand....I had to towel burrito, that worked kind of okay for the back nails, but the front was a nightmare. She kept trying to bite me, and on the very last nail, she got me! Hence why I chopped a bit too far down and we had a cut quick. It hardly bled though, I just held a tissue to it and it stopped after about one or two minutes. She didn't even squeak when it happened, so I'm guessing it didn't hurt too much.
And here's a nice sideways picture of Minnie in her towel burrito just for fun
