• Trim only the clear, pointed tip of the nail.
• Avoid the pink quick inside the nail, which contains blood vessels and nerves.
• Trim gradually and remove only a small amount at a time.
• Do not force a nail into an opening that is too small.
• Use extra caution with dark-colored nails where the quick may be difficult to see.
• Stop trimming if your cat becomes distressed or moves suddenly.
• Do not use the clipper on cracked, injured, infected or severely deformed nails.
• Keep fingers away from the cutting blades and trimming openings.
• Keep the clipper away from children.
• If you are uncertain where to trim, seek assistance from a veterinarian or professional groomer.
