Default Nail Cutting

Hmm.. I don't know if this is in the right area... couldn't decide between here and health/diet.

I cut Mahina's nails every two weeks. I've done this since I brought her home at 8 weeks. I cut them as short as possible, but her nails still touch the floor. I've heard as they get older their quicks can get longer. Thus, sometimes causing problems when they are too long.

So I was wondering if anyone has heard of vets cutting back the nails short and cauterizing them. She's supposed to get spayed tomorrow, I haven't talked to the vet about it, but I wanted to get some info from anyone who knows anything about it. I don't know if they'll even do it... but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Anyone have it done? Cost? Pros? Cons?
