I have read of dusting a persian with talc to soak up oil from their hair. Since over the years I have heard bad things about talc (whether true or not), I have yet to attempt it. I've always got a large amount of chinchilla dust bath on hand, which is simply ground volcanic ash pumice. For chinchillas, it does just what talc would for cats. Remove oil from their fur.
Would this be a safe alternative? If so, has anyone tried this before?
