Thread: how to keep her clean?

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!
