Hi all. My wife and I are new here. We have three cats here at home, all of which are really good pets. One of them however seems a little less interested in grooming herself than the others and her coat is quite a mess. Not to mention, she smells BAD! Her coat is full of tangled hair balls and we are wondering what to do about it. We have even thought of shaving her completely but I wonder if we should even attempt this. Also if we were to do such a thing would it do anything to solve her bad grooming habits. Once the hair grows back would the bad habits continue. The cat (Kissa by name) is quite young, being only 3 years old at this time and is quite a loner too, not spending much time with her two companions. She can usually be found somewhere where the other two are'nt. She is a little more skittish than the other two but all three are house cats and although they have all been fixed they have not been de-clawed (a cruelty). Does anyone have any clues or anwers for us? We'd love to know.

It is the most economical litter I have ever used. I only put a layer of litter in the pan that will cover half the pan. As the cats use it, it turns to sawdust. When its all dust you dump it....

This is probably the single most important toy I ever bought. I got it when my boy was a kitten and two years later, he still plays with it every day.
first I would like to welcome you both on this site . It is a plesure to have you here . Then I like to say something about your cat . Sometimes cats don't groom any more when they are sick , but then on the other hand some cats just don't groom well . I do have one female and she don't groom a lot she smells like a normal cat . But you also said something about a smell . So that made me wonder . When was she the last time by the Vet ? Cats normaly don't smell bad . So I think you may need to let the Vet ck her out just to make sure you cat is ok . I had to shave a cat before to , well my groomer did it for me , with one of my long hair cats . I got him from the shelter that way . After that I just comb him all the time and there was no more bad hair days .
