Re: Moulting


Have you ever tried 'srtoking' your cat whilst wearing rubber gloves? Sounds a bit perv but actually the gloves help take out the shed hairs. Put a towel/cloth on your lap, sit puss down and stroke away . You may end up sneezing, as the hairs fly!

Re: Moulting


I have heard about the rubber glove treatment DM - when she stays in the cattery they use gloves on the cats every day. I'll give it a go!!

Re: Moulting


Abbi, I bought one of those mitts a couple of years ago and Cassie won't let me get near her with that on....she hates it! I've only got to get it out and she'll scoot away!!

I use that, but now Tigger has got big clumps of nots, which i think are making him uncomfortable

Re: Moulting


I'm not sure but I think you might have to cut the knots/clumps of hair out I know someone who has a persian and if she does not get a daily comb her hair can get knotted, and then the knots have to cut out very carefully with scissors. Otherwise it can be very uncomfortable for the cats....
