Mr. Snuggles needs it everyday sometimes twice in one day. All my other cats love it although they dont really need it. I think its a bonding thing. They cue up for a brush. It also makes you feel nice a lovely big purring kitty enjoying it. All the kittens I have fostered even the ex ferals have enjoyed it (in the end)  |

Thats a good question Fluffy. Most of ours are short haired and do a great job of keeping themselves groomed but at the same time I have a bit of an allergy to dead pet hair which means that sometimes a good brush or comb is definitely required. Sometimes they get brushed just because they like the entertainment value.
;D

Pepper adores being brushed and combed. She really needs it. Despite being short haired, she has a double coat. The vet was amazed. When you part her fur you cannot see the skin. I also Petal Cleanse her, which involves putting the stuff (it's a liquid) with a sponge on her coat and then drying her off again with a towel. It supposedly gets rid of the dander, which is what most people (including me) are allergic to. Samson tolerates it but is not a big fan. He is also very good at keeping himself neat and tidy. When I use the brush hardly any fur comes out. Buddie, well let's just say I pick up the brush and he is gone.  I love grooming Pepper, she purrs her little head off and it's so relaxing. |

No, but I went to visit a neighbour on Friday and she had a 'cat mitt' as well as a cat brush and her cat was obviously in ecxtasy when she demonstrated it to me. So I might just get one next time I'm at the pet shop.

What is a shedener?
And blimey, they allow you to brush their teeth? I would have no fingers left if I'd try that with my lot.

I would like to know what a shedender is  Mr. Snuggles laid in the rain yesterday and came in looking like a scruffy old stray  I had a h*** of a job doing him. Gave him a bit of a trim he looks lovely now. I love brushing my cats and they love it too apart from poor old Snuggles but poor boy has ALL that fur so I dont blame him. He likes his head and under his chin but thats it!! It really does make you feel lovely when you groom mine cue up for it. When I get the comb they all line up for it!!  |
