Zen Clipper Size S #3 – 2.5mm hole. This is for larger cats, larger birds, puppies, large reptiles and very small dogs.

You can order a sizing card with any of your orders (if you order the card on it’s own a postage cost will be payable but we are happy to refund this charge if you go ahead and order a clipper) or print one off at home by downloading a digital copy here.
