I have three ferrets and four cats. Two dogs as well (but they're much too big for these clippers). I originally purchased these clippers for my ferrets. My younger two keep their nails relatively short with their constant digging and frolicking, but my older girl often needs her nails trimmed for her (as she spends a majority of her days resting rather than playing). I'm always scared of nicking my poor furry-children's blood line in their nails. It's painful, it's bloody, and it's no fun for anyone. Human nail clippers don't allow me to fit the curve of the claw, nor do they allow a good visual of the claw. That's why I decided to try pet clippers. I like these so much better than baby human nail clippers. They are shaped like scissors, which allows them to easily fit into my average female hands. They have grips on the inside which keep them from slipping. The clippers themselves are very sharp and leave a nice straight cut across the nail. I can clip my ferret's front nails in under 5 minutes with these trimmers. I've never hit a bloodline (knock on wood)- nor have the nails ever cracked from the pressure. These are so easy to use- it's like cutting butter. I also have an older female cat who has trouble keeping her nails filed by herself. So eventually she needs a clipping- so her poor little feet don't stick on the carpet as she walks. She hates having her nails cut, and human nail clippers were never easy to use with a squirming feline. On the other hand, these clippers work great. They fit to the curvature of her nail so I can latch onto a claw, find the right length, and clip quickly, painlessly, and easily. So far the only two animals I've tried these clippers on are cats and ferrets, but I'm sure they would work well for all small pets including guinea pigs and rabbits. They are very easy to use and leave a nice smooth cut. One of the best hygienic accessories I've purchased for my pets! Read more
these work great, they are much tighter than others I have purchased which makes me feel a lot more comfortable using them for my budgerigars. they have already lasted me a year and don’t feel any different to me, quite happy with them and would recommend for precise small animal nail trims!

Love these trimmers, I have always taken my rabbit to vet to have his nails trimmed because he is black and has black toe nails, so I was afraid to try and cut them. His nails were getting too long and was unable to get him to get, so I read about how to cut the nails if the are black, then I ordered these trimmers, they are very sharp and easy to use, they give a clean quick cut Read more
Works well for my guinea pig. Great price! Read more
Great for exactly what I needed these for. Read more
Thank you for making these! I've been trying to use the cat clippers and toe nail clippers for the front feet. Both have been awkward. I just got these and have used them once. Nice and sharp. I thought they looked big but the blade is a bit smaller than the cat clippers. Read more
Purchased these so I could trim my rabbit's nails. My rabbit hates me, so I was not able to get to all of her nails, but the ones I did trim were trimmed with no sign of discomfort from her. Trimmer is small, like a pair of baby scissors, but an adult can hold them easily - the trick is if you can also hold your pet easily at the same time! Price was cheaper than at at the pet store. Quality is decent, you get what you pay for, these aren't surgical tools, so expect them to trim nails, but also expect them to break if you happen to step on them while wearing a pair of boots or something. The handles are plastic so that would break them and probably bend the blades. BE CAREFUL when trimming your pet's nails - identifying and avoiding the quick is important and if you cut it IT HURTS! I'm trimming what nails I can and then taking bunny to the vet to trim the ones I can't. This is good for maintenance on a skittish pet, and may be good for all your needs to a relaxed pet, but that has nothing to do with the quality, but more with the skill and comfort zone of the owner - I don't want to hurt my bunny so light maintenance is all I needed.

The media could not be loaded. Work great, I got them to cut my ferrets' nails. Cuts super clean and easily, handles are a very firm rubber type material, so it doesnt bend easily, but is still soft and flexible, so theyre more comfortable to hold than clippers with a hard plastic handle Read more
