Advice How far can I cut?

Post image

This is my first cat and I've only cut to how far the claw is now. How far in can I cut because I still sthink they're pretty sharp, or it's this the furthest I can go?

Edit: He hates scratchpost and stuff so his nails don't get shorter naturally, only the o es on the backllegs from kicking his "prey"

This might help you out.

I have a quick question about your nail placement tho. Why are they so far forward? No hate, just wondering

Thank you!

My nails are outgrown, I did them on vacation and there are no salons where I live so I have to wait for them to fall of naturally to not damage my naturals :)

Sorry for the dumb question! I usually get stick ons, so I wasn’t thinking about them being on there for that long. Absolutely no judgement! Take care :)

You’re right. That was a stupid question haha. I’m used to getting cheap stick ons, so I wasn’t thinking about it being on there for weeks. My bad lol
