Nail day does not have to be a wrestling match. This clipper lets you set exactly how much nail goes into the blade — so you trim with confidence instead of guessing.

Set it once, trim with confidence
The cutting hole adjusts from 1 mm to 3.5 mm across four marked settings — 1, 2, 2.5 and 3.5 mm. Press the button, slide it to the setting you want, and the internal shutter raises or lowers to change the opening. A kitten's fine claw and a big cat's thick one each get their own setting.

Clippings stay put
A clear guard sits over the blade so you can see exactly what you are doing. Trimmed pieces collect inside instead of pinging across the room — and it wipes out in seconds.

The file is already in your hand
A nail file is built into the handle. Trim, then smooth the edge in the same motion, without hunting for a second tool.

Made to be held, and to be put away
The curved handle sits in the palm rather than digging into it, with a steady spring return for a longer session. A sliding OPEN / LOCK switch keeps the blade closed in the drawer.

Choose Blue or Pink — same clipper, your call.

Most cats need their front claws trimmed every two to three weeks, and their back claws about once a month — but go by the claw, not the calendar. Trim only the clear tip and stop well before the pink quick.

Trim with confidence, not guesswork

Most nail-day mishaps come from not being able to see where the claw ends. This clipper takes the guessing out of it — you set how wide the opening is first, so only the tip you intended can reach the blade.

Good to know

How long does shipping take to the UK and Australia?

We ship to the UK and Australia. Delivery usually takes 6–10 days, and the exact estimate for your address is shown at checkout before you pay.

What is your returns and refund policy?

We want you and your pet to be happy with your order. See our full Returns Policy for the details on returns, exchanges and refunds.

How do I choose the right setting?

The four marks show how wide the cutting hole opens: 1, 2, 2.5 and 3.5 mm. Start with a smaller opening than you think you need — you can always take a little more off, but you cannot put it back.

Can I use it on a kitten?

Yes. The smallest setting opens to 1 mm, which suits a kitten's fine claw, and the larger settings are there for a fully grown cat's thicker one.

What is the clear part over the blade for?

It is a fixed guard. It lets you see the claw while you cut, and the trimmed pieces collect inside it instead of pinging across the room. Wipe it out when you are done.

Where is the nail file?

On the inside of the handle. Swing the handle open and the file is right there, so you can smooth the edge straight after trimming.

How do I store it safely?

Slide the switch to LOCK and the blade stays closed, so it can go back in the drawer without catching on anything.
