Cat nails that are cracked and split need to be cut. Cracked cat nails will affect the cat's activities. Cats can easily break their nails when running, jumping and climbing, and in severe cases can tear the surrounding skin. Therefore, you must cut off the cat's cracked and forked nails in time. And in daily life, you should also pay attention to helping cats trim their nails regularly to avoid frequent nail cracking.

Causes of cracked and split cat nails

1. Cat’s nails are divided into many layers, and they will fall off regularly. This is a normal phenomenon.

2. A lack of vitamins or water in the cat’s body will cause the cat’s nails to be underdeveloped, dry and easy to break.

3. If the cat suffers from skin diseases, it will also cause lesions on the cat’s nails.
