Warning when cutting piggie nails...

[Guinea pigs <3]

Protect your eyes! I was cutting Mabel's nails and a bit of it flew into my eye, and went under my eyelid! OUCH!

 

[Harriet7]

i shall heed your warning and wear sunglass

how often do you cut your nails? i was thinking every few weeks maybe:^-

edit i ment piggies nails|)

 

[mshappy89]

Ouch. Safety goggles needed!

 

[Beautifulmess]

OUCH indeed! I cut my pigs whenever they're long and twisted so no time scale.

 

[AudioHeart]

Owwie! Hope your eyes okay! Perhaps some safety goggles might be needed?

Haha! I cut Harveys nails the other day left the nail clippings on the windows sill walked off to put Harvey back and completely forgot about them. Needless to say my OH was not impressed! oops!

lol oh sorry, had to giggle, but it sounds v painful, hope you ok x

 

[GuineaPigPuke]

Go to the vet!:x

 

[Guinea pigs <3]

Haha, it was kind of funny! We do need safety specs, they are lethal when they dart around! I just cut them when they are looking a bit long, sorry that's not very useful! There are some useful threads on here about how to do it if you haven't done it before! You need to be careful you don't cut into the quick otherwise it will bleed and hurt your piggie!

 

[MommaPiggy]

Oh no! That sounds painful.

I do notice that the nail bits seem to fly around.

Safety goggles it is from now on
