Someone did advise me to use talc on our chickens once to help integrate them, gets rid of chicken smell apparently :smile:
Bit of an old one Miss Diane , but he is so difficult to get a pic of !
Gah!! We are having such issues with Poif and poop in her fur at the moment. This winter she grew a very thick coat (she looks a bit like a sheep) and she just seems to constantly have poop around her bum area, it STINKS!! She also likes to sleep wrapped round my head at night, and now this is a rather unpleasant experience.
We have tried combing the area to keep it de-knotted and are now shaving it down regularly, but it seems even the short fur seems to embrace bits of poo like a huge never ending hug. Please help me!!
Or at least offer some advise into how to shave a cats behind in the least distressing way for all!

Beautiful cat.
I don't particularly want to be shredded, or to be the one who gets the blame for the outrage,
so I let my friendly local groomer do the trimming and take the blame...
Combo bath ( which I'm also glad to avoid ) and sanitary trim for MC Elvis is around US$30
here and he seems to like the groomer ( other than the fact that he's the only cat among many dogs )
and the attention he gets there enough so that he doesn't embarrass himself by not cooperating.
Rarely encounter this problem now they are all raw fed - firm dry poops never stick to fur and don't even smell.
We had a few issues with this too, but Sidney is now eating Lily's Kitchen wet food and his poops are very solid and smooth on the outside. I used to just trim it off whilst the front end was scoffing a cat treat! Maybe diet is the way forward?
I hold Ginger and wash her butt with a warm wet washcloth, if nothing else it's good for a laugh as she kicks and licks to get away.
