The 6 Best Tips For Grooming Your Cat.

1. Get your cat in your lap or on the floor in front of you.
2. Get the right brush. Make sure that the brush is a thin and strong brush. The bristles should be flexible but strong, and they should be fine in width.
3. Run the brush through your hair first. If the brush has your scent on it, your cat will calm down. An added benefit of doing this is that you can check that it is not too hard for use.
4. Let the cat sniff it. If the cat does not try to bite the comb, proceed to the next step, if it does attack the comb, leave it be and try again the next day. Repeat until your kitten or cat accepts the brush.
5. Start brushing its head. Do not brush hard, it could hurt your kitten or cat. Run the brush down its back, and try to brush down its legs. It is easier to do this when your cat is laying down. Brush its legs, but not its paws.
6. Spend time talking, soothing and patting your cat before, during and after grooming so that your cat comes to associate grooming with pleasant memories.

Tips

It's better to get a cat's brush than a human brush.

This is easier if your cat loves you a lot.

Never use a hairbrush that doesn't have fine, thin bristles.

If your cat attacks the hairbrush, do not groom it; this may result in scratches and bites!
