Cat Grooming
In the UK we love cats just as much as we love dogs, in fact statistically there are more cats in the UK than there are dogs - and believe it or not but cats also need to be given a nice and proper groom once in a while too. It isn't to the same extent as dogs but it is important to brush them and for longer haired cats it can be important to clip the fur. Cats also have nails that grow and that need regular clipping as well as teeth to brush and areas that are hard for them to clean. It might seem like they are okay cleaning themselves but they still need your help with some areas of grooming.
In this series we want to provide you with insights, tips, tricks and advice to cat care and are sharing our knowledge and techniques to coat care, nail care, nutritional tips, behaviour, tools and equipment, cat handling and grooming, and many more besides, so that you can get closer to your pets and care for them properly and also make better buying decisions.
