Here. I just found what it is called.

"Styptic powder is a must have for any pet owner looking to trim their pet's nails. This handy-dandy anticoagulant can be used to stop all kinds of superficial bleeding like cuts and scrapes."

Dad kept a pencil of it with shaving supplies.

Great, I will put that on my shopping and prepping list. Thank you. I should have some in the house as well, since we have three Critters that get their nails trimmed.
