Same here, I've tried all other types but normal human ones do the trick.

Messeyhearts I have tried those but mine didn't stay that sharp and made a mess of the nail after a couple of months.

Re: nail clippers

Really?

I tried it a fortnight ago & they are pretty much, now, as they were before I did it.

Re: nail clippers

Hi,

I use human ones, I have found some of the pet ones split the nail rather than cut it. I also find them easier to handle and the cats seems less stressed about them rather than the pet ones that they can sense a mile off.

I clip the nails of my cats every two weeks so they get a lot of use (I have have the clippers attached to my car keys I use them that much sad eh!)
