I have two cats with medium/long hair, which means that if they aren’t brushed a lot, they tend to get mats in their fur. For one cat, this is easy as the only thing she likes better than food is attention and brushing is attention. But as for the other…not so much.
I'd say let someone give the other cat a really short summer trim.
ReplyDeletePeaches would need lots of post brushing rewards to play nicer.
ReplyDeleteI had a friend in high school who shaved his cat and painted it blue.
ReplyDeleteJust a thought.
As soon as I saw the title I had that song in my head. Great minds?
ReplyDeleteSeriously, though, shaving the cat is not a bad idea. My brother's cat, who passed on earlier this year, would get shaved in the summer. She looked odd. But she moved so much better. Especially when it was way hot. (Professional groomers do that sort of thing.)
Isn't that how it goes? You have one easy child and a difficult child. ;)
ReplyDeleteCalvin & Hobbes loved it. With Rocko & Spunky, we had to use one of those special glove brushes.
ReplyDeleteI have one or two brushes, but I'll brush my cats for a while and then forget about it, so they haven't been in use in a while. Two of my cats allow it while the other doesn't.
ReplyDeleteOur cat never liked brushing. Some of those little beasties just have weird personalities.
