Clipping/filing cat nails?

Is it possible to take maybe a 100 grain nail file (used for acrylic nails) and soften the edges? Has anyone tried this?Clipping/filing cat nails?
Get your cat a scratching post! Or you could take the cat to the vet. My vet will clip my cat's nails for $15. (It's worth it since she hates it and tries to scratch and bite-not very tolerant)Clipping/filing cat nails?
If your cat is not cooperative with clipping, get a helper. Wrap the cat securely in a towel %26amp; let the helper hold %26amp; comfort while you do the clipping.. If you do it often, it will be easier because you just need to clip the very tips off..
Absolutely. It would take longer to file them then to trim them. Your local vet or pet store should carry nail trimmers specifically for cats. They're relatively inexpensive. If you can get your kitty to sit still long enough to file them, then there should be no problem!


Good luck!
If your cat will sit still for that it will work.
