Put them in the hot Israeli sun for a bit (seriously, the past week temperatures would not go below 35C) to soften them up.
Needless to say, they became very soft, up to the point where anymore would be stretching.

Also, if anyone by any chance recognizes this place and where i live (which is extremely unlikely, there are almost no furries here) feel free to send me a message. And I will kindly move away.
