Noted all the suggestions! Good practical ones too.

Tried it again - gosh had to be so so quick! like lightning to quickly snip it
off. but alas - I dropped the scissors and now she's on to me. she didn't hiss
though but I'll try again tomorrow. Its just a small 1/2 inch burr stuck in her
fur .

Don't use scissors. Get a small pair of pliers and crush the burr.
Then you can crumble it out with your fingers. It's much easier than
trying to cut it out.

The pliers sound like a good idea too.

It works well. When I was a kid, my parents used to let our cats go
outside (they don't anymore). Getting burrs out of their fur was a
pretty common thing, and the pliers method was the most effective.

Laura


great idea too! thanks
