Fugly's foot-hiding sounds a bit like something Mr. Mike T. Pig pulls 
on me. (I don't know if he does it to Steve Slave; perhaps I should 
watch!) Mr. Mike does NOT want me looking at his feet, but I can 
usually grab and look at the first front claw (doesn't matter left vs. 
right). When I try to look at the other front claw, he often tries to 
hide it in his neck fat or anyplace else he thinks I can't get to. "No, 
I don't have any feet! Go away!" he says. Since I typically have him 
propped up on my lap at this point, I can pretty easily look around the 
bulk of him to see the back claws, but that second front claw is always 
a battle. :-)
