Just incase anyone has a ham like Teddy... Be careful when checking if a ham is in pain when his claws are touched. With Teddy we judged if his claw-less paws were ok by watching him walk and use them, he seems completely happy using his paws and putting weight on his toes so we trust they're ok.
His absolute terror of claw trims means we'll probably never be able to touch his paws ourselves, we just have to trust he'd show signs of a problem with his paws if his missing claws were an issue. I doubt many will have a ham quite like Teddy in that respect but thought it was worth mentioning all the same
