Hi,
I'm a new member and have a quick question. On the subject of nail clipping, I live with 4 kitties that have their nails regularly trimmed. I started them when they were very young so they don't mind it. However, I was cutting one kitty's nails today and I inadvertantly cut to close to the quik. The nail bled quite a bit and I frantically was looking through my cat books to see what would help stop the bleeding. I couldn't find an answer. Does anyone have the answer? BTW, I stayed in the bathroom with her and dabbed diluted hyrogen proxide on it, which seemed to help. In seven years, this has only happened once before but you feel terrible!
Thanks for any help.
Kathleen
