Hi everyone

A little help needed with grooming our ex feral cats.

Shadow ,the black male is pretty accommodating ,allowing us to brush him enough to keep his coat in great condition---BUT

Muse ,the little girl (and with more coat than Shadow) allows a few moments and then decides its time

to turn into a tiger with sharp jaws and claws.

The main concern is that she has tangles(about the size of a quarter at her front "arm pits" and she

wont give us enough time to attend to them.

Has anyone had a similar project(lol) .

Looking forward to HHELP here----

Tony and Kat(owned by Muse and Shadow)

You might need to take her periodically to the vet to have things shaved/clipped off.  They can sedate her lightly, just to get the job done.

She may be one of those cats who is too sensitive for grooming.  We have one - hardly allows pets.  Luckily, he's short-haired but he still needs a good combing once in a while.

They are really pretty!
