For his own protection he gets a good grip on her so that if she decides to attack he won't be caught with his pants down so to speak--he's vulnerable while in the aci

If you noticed when you grab a cat by the scruff of the neck, it curles up. This is because there is a nerve bundle that when clamped on causes slight paralysis.
