To us maybe it's obvious, but I think it should be added how the
cut is to be placed, as it's important if you don't want the tip
to get broken:
The cut must be placed parallel to the floor's surface, as it
would be in relation to the foot when the ferret is standing on
the floor.

Please add that it's really not necessary, as the flow will stop by
itself in a short while.
