Thank you all for your baby wipe suggestions, I'll pick some of those up and give her a little trim. She's pretty squirmy, it normally takes two tries for one nail to be clipped, but we get there.
Her sister was a Manx and Beatrix also has the long back legs and thick leg hair that makes her look like she's wearing snowpants, which in turn makes me giggle every time that I watch her walk away, which gets her trotting back to see me, and then I can try to clip her nails again.
The ebb and flow of my house, it's high drama.

I used baby wipes (hypoallergenic and fragrance-free) on Bob my Manx when he was a kitten. As Manxes are prone to this problem, especially when they are young, baby wipes were the most hygenic and gentle way to go.
