Do pets need to be groomed? And what should I do if my cat doesn't like this procedure?
- Regular grooming helps prevent matting, - explains groomer Anna ZHILKO. - The fur is cleaned of dirt, debris, and dead hair (if not groomed, all of this will end up on your carpet, sofa, or in your pet's stomach).
Additionally, grooming allows you to detect ticks on your pet in a timely manner. A rubber grooming mitt or a soft brush is suitable for grooming a cat.
The first grooming session should be introductory. Don’t force the animal if it doesn’t like it. It’s better to try grooming again the next day. You can also combine the procedure with feeding. While you groom the cat, treat it to something. Gradually, the cat will start to associate the brush with food and will stop being afraid.
