Cat Nail Care

Last night I trimmed my cat Ash's front paws, I noticed something wrong with one of his nails, and I dont know what caused this or what to do to treat it. He seems fine with it, but Ill catch him time to time chewing on it. Im just a concerned cat owner.

Hi, I've had my guinea pigs for a few months now, and have read that I should be clipping their nails. I bought a nail clipper, but the guinea pigs won't let me get anywhere close with it. How do I go about trimming? Thank you!

can i use dog nail clippers to cut my guinea pigs nails there over grown

I recently noticed Chloe’s nails have been chipping on the sides, she only gets her nails cut from her vet. Is this a sign of her nails being unhealthy? And is there a way to make them better? Thanks!

Have a spunky new rescue chihuahua mix and she is skittish. So much so she will resist any efforts to trim her nails. We have 4 dogs so I have trimmed nails hundreds of times--but with Ricki Ricardo, no luck. I sit on the floor and flip them over and cradle them between my legs. My wife distracts them with peanut butter on a spoon. Besides going to a groomer or vet, any ideas? I thought maybe a groomer table might help. Are there premium nail cutters of higher quality than store bought?

My cats chew and shred paper and cardboard incessantly. Help!

I have an 8 year old tabby female cat and she has a wound which looks to be a cut on her paw. The vet gave her antibiotics that lasts 2 weeks a couple days before Xmas and we dipped her paw with the cleaning medicine prescribed but it made her vomit when she licked it so we stopped and the wound scabbed, she stopped limping and licking but she recently just reopened the cut during a cat fight and is limping again. Should we just start the dip again or make an emergency appointment? Thank you

Is he scratching off his nipple? Is it normal? He doesn’t seem to be in any pain at all, his nails aren’t long at all and he hasn’t been excessively scratching his chest. He’s been scratching around the top of his paws lately which I’m assuming is normal being that I walk him three times a day every day but he doesn’t seem to be having any problems at all. He’s eating, playing and has been acting normal. What should I do?

My dog had the cover of his toenail removed 3 weeks ago exposing the quick. His doctor is on vacation until Monday. I change his dressing 2 to 3 times a day and use Hibitane cream to help the healing. He also had three small fractures in his paw there were removed. My question is should I keep changing the dressing and putting the cream on until I hear back from my doctor on January 7 Or should I keep the quick exposed to the air while he’s in the house?
