Regular cat grooming is essential for their health and happiness! It can help reduce problems such as:
- Heat stress
- Ticks and parasites (easier to find when their coat is short)
- Unnoticed lumps
- Irritation to the skin and paws
- Painful mats and knots
- Excessive hair shedding
- Fur balls
- Prevent Dental Disease
- Lower Risk of cuts (to cats themselves and owners) from overgrown nails
- Reduce Stress & Anxiety
Fun Fact : Contrary to the belief that Cats clean themselves, they are only actually just licking their coats. Their tongues are not the same as shampoo and water. They may get the visible dirt off of their body, but that does not mean they are clean. There is still bacteria, excessive oils and dead fur trapped within the coat. It's actually the micro allergens in the saliva and not the fur which when dried on the cat's skin that causes a person's hypersensitivity when the dead skin cell sheds
