Dog and cat fur is so much coarser than rabbit fur that it blunts the clippers. If you have a nice sharp pair reserved for rabbits it seems to be fine.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/112704?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 21 Apr 2011 19:55:45 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:0289d509-5095-4fc4-892e-591f3ea4f674Emma Purnell<p>We have a set of size 50 Oster blades that we use soley for rabbit fur, it works far better than the size 40 we use the rest of the time! We had a similar problem until we invested in these.</p> <p>Good luck!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
