Thread: Do cats need us to give them baths???

Do little & often & make it into a game but always finish on your terms not his,they all normally have a spot that they love to be groomed ,behind the ears or their ruff so when you find his "favourite spot" use that as a finishing point so he enjoys it,if he gets annoyed & tries to push away still do a bit more then go to his favourite spot needs only be for a couple of seconds but that then gives you the edge to say all done thats a good boy & give him a treat. I tend to use a slicker brush a lot on mine,they look like an instrument of torture but it goes into the coat & seems to stimulate the skin as well,if you ever get one just try brushing part of the coat up the wrong way with sharp short strokes,smooth it down & then feel the difference between the texture of that bit & the rest of the coat,a good slicker works wonders & the cuddles & kisses plus whispers into their ears are while you are doing it are something special too...x
