Pay attention to these points when cutting nails for cats
In modern society, more and more people
choose to raise a cat. One of my friends is also promoted to be a cat owner and
has a cat of her own. With the cat, her life changes a lot, no longer need to
suck the cat, and she can always play with the cat. But the sharp claws of the
cat have become a huge "killer", often breaking the master's hand.

My friend decided to cut the nails for the
cat, but I didn't expect the nail to be a disaster film. Because I didn't
understand the structure of the cat's nails, I accidentally cut the blood line.
As a result, the cat was guilty of sin, and she was scratched out of the blood
by her claws. It can be said that both the owner and the cat were sinned.
Cats are so resistant to nail cutting that
they have traces. After all, claws are especially important to them, and the
claws can not only tickle them, but also bring a feeling of happiness. And it
is also the best weapon for them to climb and hunt.
Climbing is the nature of cats. No matter how
you stop cats, you can't stop them from wanting to climb. If you don't have
nails, it is equivalent to losing your ability to climb. This is undoubtedly a
torture for cats who are yearning for freedom. The claws are also a weapon for
them to hunt. If they lose sharp claws in the wild, they will be difficult to
survive.
But in modern society, after the cat has
been with humans for a long time, the domestic cat gradually does not need to
hunt himself. Its sharp claws have become a weapon of destruction. In order to
avoid the sofa furniture at home, and our own hands suffer, so The cat owners
still have to cut their nails regularly.
So how can we make nail cutting more
peaceful?
In fact, it is not difficult. The cat owner
can easily cut the nails of the cat by paying attention to the following three
points.
1. The cat owner should choose a
nail-cutting tool suitable for cats.
A good tool can do more with less, so cat
owners must pay special attention to the selection of cat nail clippers.
Some cat owners use nail clippers for
humans to cut nails for cats for convenience. This is unavoidable. First of
all, human nails and cats have different nail shapes. The human nails are flat
and the cat's nails are slender and pointed. It is easy to split the cat's nails
with a human nail clipper.
The cat owner thinks that the dog is very
similar to the cat's nails, so use a dog's nail clipper to cut the nails to the
cat. Dog nail clippers are too big for cats. Cat owners do not operate very
well, it is easy to hurt the cat, so it is best to use cat-specific nail
clippers, which can increase the cat's experience in the process of nail
cutting, but also effectively prevent damage to the cat.
The use of improper nail clippers can
easily cause the cat's claws to break, even bleeding, and the wound is
inflamed. When choosing a cat nail clipper, you should also pay attention to
whether the blade is sharp or not. The sharp edge can make the process of
cutting the nails easier.
2. The cat owner should pay attention to
the mood during the cat's nail cutting process.
Cats are very vigilant. If you cut them
directly, most cats are extremely reluctant. They even make rebellious actions
that hurt the cat owner or himself. So before the cat owner cuts the paws for
the cat, Be sure to pay attention to appease their emotions and let them relax
their vigilance first.
It is also important to make the cat feel
comfortable. The cat owner can choose an environment that makes the cat feel
comfortable and safe. Let the cat put it out, or choose to give the cat some
snacks or Put a beautiful cat collar on a cat.

The cat owner can gently pick up the cats,
put them on the legs, properly touch the cat's head, let the cat feel safe and
unharmed, let it feel close to the cat owner, wait until the cat After the mood
has stabilized and become obedient, the cat owner can cooperate with the food
temptation to feed the snacks while cutting the nails to attract their
attention.
When cats are very reluctant to be cut
nails, be careful not to force them. Even if you don't completely cut your
nails, it doesn't matter. Put the cat away first, wait for it to calm down, or
you can cut the remaining nails in a few days. .
Of course, after cutting your nails, don't
forget to appease the cat's master, stroking or giving the cat a canned cat as
a reward. These methods are very feasible, so that the cats know that nail
cutting is not only harmless, but also Have canned food.
3. The cat owner needs to pay attention to
the way the nail is cut and the position of the cut.
After the cat's emotions have been
comforted, they enter the most important part of nail cutting. First, the cat
owner needs to know the number of cats that need to be nailed. The cat's front
paws have a total of 5 nails, 4 on the front and one on the side, called the
sub-finger. The cat's hind paws only have 4 nails. There are 18 nails that the
cat needs to cut. When the cat owner cuts the nails, be careful not to miss
them.
When cutting nails for a cat, the cat owner
can choose to sit or squat, placing the cat in the middle of the legs and
choosing a more comfortable position. The back of the cat's nail is a blood
vessel. Pick up the cat's paw and look closely. It is the pink part of the
middle and back sections. When the cat owner uses nail clippers to cut the
nails to the cat, be careful not to cut the dark part. There are blood vessels
and tissues. After all, it is a ten-finger heart. If you accidentally cut the
blood vessels, the cat will feel very painful, which will also cause bleeding,
which will cause the cat to have a bad impression of nail cutting.
In addition, the position of the blood
vessels is deep and shallow, and the cats who often move outside may not be
inconsistent with the depth of the blood vessels of the cats that are raised at
home. The cat owner needs to observe it carefully at this time to avoid cutting
the blood line and causing damage to the cat. If you accidentally cut the blood
line, if the situation is not serious, there may be a small amount of bleeding.
At this time, the cat owner can stop bleeding after disinfection.
In severe cases, there may be more bleeding
or bleeding. At this time, the cat can use hemostatic powder to stop bleeding.
If the effect is not good, the cat is more serious, and the cat owner can take
the cat to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
When the cat owner cuts the nails of the
cat, pay attention to the fast, accurate, and sturdy, and cut the nails to the
cat at a suitable angle. The process of helping cats cut their nails also needs
to be gradual. If you are a novice cat owner, you can cut the nails a few times
before cutting the nails, and cut the top part.
Many cat owners talk about the need to cut
nails to cats as if they were enemies, or even armed or worried about being
hurt by the cat's claws. Therefore, the cat is often taken to a professional
pet hospital or pet shop for pruning. Not only is it a waste of money, but it
is also quite troublesome. In fact, as long as the cat owner masters the above
three points, he can easily understand the new skills of cutting nails for
cats.
