Does anyone know about Pedi-Paws?

[Taz_Zoee]

I've got one (actually, I had two but gave one to my sister). I can use it on Taggart. What I do is trim his nails with clippers then use the pedi-paws to round the edges. Yeah, it doesn't work the greatest, but it works for what I need it to do. As someone else here on PT suggested, I take the guard off and it's much easier to use. Otherwise his nail would get caught all the time in the guard.
I would not be able to use this on Paizly or Zoee. They are both difficult to get near with noise. And Paizly is tough to even clip nails on. Bruce has to hold her for me. Luckily, Zoee doesn't need her nails trimmed often so it gets done when I take her to the groomer.

Oh, and my sister likes it too. Her Boston Terrier sits well for it. It really all depends on the animal.

If I hadn't got this I would probably invest in a Dremel. And probably will when this one breaks or dies.

Hi everyone!
Thank you all very much for your comments and thoughts. These things are currently on sale at the Rite-Aid around the corner.

We first heard about Pedi-Paws over the holidays when the tv ads were running almost constantly. I had mentioned to Soncat once that the animals in the ad seemed like they might have been drugged or something, they just didn't seem right. I hope I'm wrong about that.

Anyway, Pedi-Paws is scratched off my list of things to consider getting for Groucho.

HIGHLY recommend this one:

NOT this one:

Please, please, please notice the difference between the spelling of the two devices.

I purchased the PETICURE grooming aide and both of my cats allow me to file their nails without running away or hiding. My male cat (younger) allowed me to use it from day one. My OLDER (11 yr old cat) was a little slower to warm up to it -- BUT both cats are fine with it now.

The model I purchased is NOT battery operated. I didn't want to worry about replacing batteries, draining out while trying to use -- so I opted for the professional model with the AC cord and boy am I ever so glad I did.

Notice the price difference -- the professional one is $60; the other one is less than $20!

I much prefer to file the cats claws and so do they.
