As often as your cat cleans her paws and coat, you might not think she needs much help in the grooming department. The truth is, cats do need your help with grooming, especially longhairs.
The benefits of grooming your cat are many. Daily combing or brushing helps her maintain a healthy coat, minimize shedding and keep mats at bay. It also helps reduce hairballs and helps prevent medical conditions due to an unkempt coat. Spending time alone with your cat is also a perfect way to enhance the bond between you.
Some breeds or coat conditions require your cat to have regular baths, which can be a challenge since most kitties don’t enjoy water. For tips on bathing, read this helpful article.
It’s best to begin grooming her as a kitten, but even in adulthood, you can ease her into a routine. It helps if she’s a “people cat” and loves to be petted. Otherwise, patience, gentle brushstrokes and treats during short sessions will help her get used to, even come to love her grooming dates with you.
