Is a pet nail grinder patented?

Short answer: specific designs of a pet nail grinder have been patented many times, but "a pet nail grinder" as a general idea is not what is protected. What matters is the exact combination of features in your version.

What this means for your idea

Because patents cover specific combinations of features, the useful question is not “has a pet nail grinder been patented?” but “has my combination of features been described before?” Pet products are a popular invention category; differences tend to be in the attachment, the dispensing or cleaning mechanism, or added electronics.
