This is something I avoided using, and we had it sitting around "just in case" it was every needed. When we took in Thumper, he was terrified of having his nails clipped, however, I broke down and used the muzzle as he was 'brawling' with the other boys and causing tears in their skin, which was not good and something had to change. After a few sessions with the muzzle on, Thumper settled down to the point that I could attempt to do his nails without the muzzle, and now he is just fine, and the other cats are free of scratch wounds. In a multi cat household, I would now never be without a muzzle in my arsenal. The specific muzzle we use is made of nylon and covers the eyes.......most important feature.
