what is the best clipper blade number for cats

That would depend on the cut you wish to give the cat. The higher number the blade the less amount of fur will be left on the cat.

The blade that it comes with is the size 10. Oster makes cat blades as well. just search for oster cat blade. thanks

It really depends on how long you wish to leave the cat's coat. Each blade is numbered and each number leaves the coat a different lengths. If the coat is thick or matted I would use a skip tooth blade.

Yes. You won't have any problems whatsoever. Buy the no# 10 blade. I love this trimmer. Perfect for my cat and my two dogs.

I used to clip my two cats during the summer months and I believe I used this clipper; its much quieter than the first clipper I purchased which was an Oster but that was many years ago. I started clipping a Persian I owned many years ago, and have clipped two more sets of cats since then. In my experience their cooperation depends on how much they trust you. Maybe because I had to wash and dip them once a month back then they more easily cooperated with the clipping process?? when you clip them go with the hair growth or it will be very very short. It may not come out very even though. You can also use a comb attachment and clip against the hair growth, but they will really not like that. I would wrap the top paws and head in a towel and lie him on his back to clip his stomach. worked really well. Good luck!!

The Oster website has an awesome chart for dog breeds and different types of cuts with the corresponding blades to use for each. I would personally use a 5 with a cutting guard...the smaller the number the longer the hair.

I work in a grooming salon and all of my coworkers use a #30 blade with their clip combs. Between using the correct blade and brushing the dog out to make sure there are no matts you should have less problems.

I've looked up that info before but don't remember.....it may be the Andis website that tells what other clippers their blades work with, I know it's somewhere online :)!

They are built very similar but the blades are different. The pet clipper has special designed blades for animal fur.

Don't know the answer, but it might help to know it fits the Oster A-5 we use to groom our springers. Wouldn't recommend using that blade on small dogs or cats. Try contacting the Oster company to find out what fits. Good luck.

I replaced the blades with blade model 1045-100. They fit perfectly and were easy to put on the trimmers. They are listed as "WAHL Professional 2 Hole Precision Clipper Blade" and are available through Amazon.

You fit the comb, whichever size comb you want for the length of hair you desire, over a #30 blade on your clippers. I use a #30 blade because of it's sharpness. Technically, it doesn't matter what size the blade is because the combs determine the hair length, but a #30 is more effective when used with combs.

I'm sorry, we have a standard poodle and it seems to work well on her. I think the thought of one of the other clipper users is best, to go to a groomer who works with cats for a suggestion.

I'm not sure I can answer this correctly but these are much bigger and more heavy duty compared to human hair clippers. The teeth on your clipper may be too small and the hair gets balled up in the teeth. I have an Airedale, they have a wiry hair coat and the hair is pretty heavy. These work great on him. Clipping a cat...wow....

Your dogs must be clean when clipping. If you are clipping them without bathing, the dirty fur will quickly dull the blade. The blades cannot be sharpened, according to the guy who does my blade sharpening. I am buying my second blade and have had my clipper for about 15 months. I am a groomer and use it for small areas on dogs and for cats.

I'm not sure......sorry. I have been very satisfied with this clipper though. My only complaint is that it's very sharp, which really isn't a complaint.I need to buy trimmers too since these clippers will draw blood on the neck line and ears.

I haven't had to reorder new blades but just wondering because I've almost made this mistake ok...they put different brands together with Andis so you really need to be sure your ordering for the Clipper you have..like I said I almost ordered a certain blade only to realize it was for Wahl brand so that could be your problem....hope this helped you out :)
