Tegusel on habemenuga teravad küünised ja see võib muuta nende käsitsemise valusaks, vaatamata nende taltsale iseloomule.
Erinevalt kassidest, väga ebatõenäoline, et tegud teid tahtlikult kriimustaksid (nüüd saba piitsutamine, see on hoopis teine lugu!), but if you are keeping one around the house you’ll still want to regularly trim their nails so you don’t look like you’ve been mauled by a big feline every time it climbs over your lap.

Nail trimming
This is best done as a two-person job. Have someone else tightly hold the tegu, ideally while it’s asleep, and gently clip the very end of its claw, where the sharp tip is.
You can use a regular nail clipper, nail file or dremel for larger pets. If you don’t want to do it yourself, find a vet that offers mani/pedi services, they are usually not too expensive.
Smoothing claws without clipping
Tegu owners often recommend letting your pet do its own nail trimming by letting it walk over sharp surfaces as it would in the wild.
You can achieve this by adding sandpaper sheets / cat scratchers ja real slate stones to the enclosure.
