Mama has the nail clippers in her hand and that is not a good thing.  She says it is a necessary part of good grooming and must be done.  Well, I am quite capable of keeping my grooming good and that includes doing my manicure. It just happens that I like my claws long and sharp as any self-respecting cat does but she likes them short and stubby.  I have to go into hiding until she gets tired of looking for me and I have the perfect place.  She will never find me!
