Grooming



Hello kitties again at long last. I haven't been able to get to the computer to put on the pictures Lynettea took of me at a grooming session. She says I can only put one on at a time.

This is me starting to groom. Tentatively at first, I begin in one of the most important places, the paws. Each claw must be thoroughly cleaned. Young kitties pay special attention to this detail. Clean claws and paws separate the well groomed cat from a rough looking street cat. Note the shine of my coat. This is due to a good healthy diet and my regular grooming. You must also instruct your human to brush you frequently. Because my fur is particularly soft Lynettea uses a special velvet brush to tend to it. I will ask her to take a picture of it for you.

More grooming lessons will follow. Young kitties will be able to follow the whole procedure from my photos. Perhaps not suitable for the really young kitty, your mother will attend to your grooming if you are too small.

Diamond, I think you are very right to start cleaning your paws first. Because when you clean your face with your paws, your face will get dirty if your paws are dirty! This would be a mistake. I am looking forward to more lessons.
It is always good to keep up good cleaning skills.

Definitely a good idea to start with the paws! Your furs do look very attractive ...

Hello Diamond.
Yes you're right - clean claws are really necessary. Maus seems to be a rough looking street cat! But I spend a lot of time with these special details too. Brushing - oh no! I prefer to be crawled by Silke & Wolfgang!

Very good grooming technique. Clean toes help cleaning your face too. You always look very nice.
Sorry I can't always leave comments when I visit cause of mommy's jobbie (her computer is out in the open so sometimes we're very quiet when visiting.)
I like the idea of a velvet brush. Maybe that would make me like brushing. hmmmm worth a shot!
Thanks for the article on dementia, we saved it.
