Kittens can have their nails trimmed. Cats need to trim their nails regularly. If the nails grow long, they will easily grow into the cat’s pads, affecting the cat’s activities and causing inflammation. Moreover, cats are prone to breakage during activities. Cutting the cat's nails can also reduce its destructive power. But be careful to use pet-specific nail clippers.
How to cut cat’s nails:
1. First, the cat should be fixed. If it is an obedient cat, hold it directly in your arms. That’s it. If the cat likes to resist, you can wrap the cat in a blanket and expose the foot that wants to have its nails trimmed.
2. Hold the cat’s paw with your hand and gently press the pad to squeeze the cat’s nails out of the pad.
3. Then you need to determine the cat’s blood line. The blood line is usually the color boundary. The common areas near the toes are pink and the areas far away are gray and white. The gray and white area is the area that can be cut.
4. Put the arc-shaped part of the nail clipper on the cat's nail. Be careful to keep it slightly away from the blood line. Do not cut along the blood line, and then cut it off.
5. If you cut the blood line and bleed, don’t be nervous. Use toilet paper or cotton balls to press it to stop the bleeding. If the bleeding doesn’t stop, you can apply a little Yunnan Baiyao.
