professional claw scissors

Many pets are unable to wear their claws properly due to the housing conditions, so that claw trimming by the pet owner or veterinarian becomes necessary. In the case of guinea pigs, for example, they often have to be trimmed with the help of claw clippers or claw clippers, since the animals are usually kept on soft bedding and the constantly growing claws do not automatically wear out and shorten on the soft surface as they do in their natural habitat.

In cats , claw care with the help of claw clippers and scissors is only necessary if the cat is no longer able to trim itself by sharpening trees, scratching furniture or similar due to illness or old age.

Claw care is always necessary for dogs when the walks take place on surfaces that are too soft or are simply too short. If the claws are the right length, they touch the ground little or not at all. The dog owner usually notices whether it is necessary to cut them when the dog makes clicking noises on the parquet or tiled floor.

The following applies to all animals : if the claws become too long, they can lead to misalignment of the paws and pain and, in the worst case, even grow in and cause bleeding. To prevent this, these should be checked regularly.

When clipping claws , it is important to keep a sufficient distance from the living part, which can be recognized by its pink color. Nerves and blood vessels run in this area, to which a distance of 2-3mm should be maintained.

Whether claw clippers or claw clippers are used to shorten the claws depends on the size and condition of the claws. A cut length limit is useful to prevent accidental over-cutting. This can e.g. B. be useful in animals with dark claws.

In addition to claw clippers and claw clippers , there are also claw grinders that can be used to grind off the claws of dogs and cats instead of clipping them off. This slow approach to the optimal claw length reduces the risk of injury to the blood vessels and nerves that run in the claw.
