How do you know if/when you need to trim nails and teeth? I have a feeling that Libra's nails are far too long (she won't let me take a picture, but they are so long that they have started breaking on her front paws) and last night Virgo started chewing on the cage bars, making a LOT of noise. I have a feeling she is trying to grind her teeth down. Some pics of normal vs long teeth/nails will be helpful (especially teeth pics, since I have NO idea what "normal" is).
Also, is there reccommended tools to use to do this, and a good technique. I would need to do it solo, since I am moving out into my own apartment in August, and need to learn how to do this on my own.
Related to that is prevention. I would rather not have to clip/trim at all. What should I put in the cage for them to scratch/chew so that they can do it all themselves that they would actually use?
