We had a kitty brushing party at my house today. I've been lax about brushing the kitties and decided today was the day to work on some of them at least. So Fluff, Tiggy, Eric and Palekana got brushed and combed. Fluff, as usual, twisted and turned and was generally difficult.
He basically likes it though. The others were more cooperative and were purring and rubbing my shoulder as I brushed. They all got salmon flavored Greenies as treats for being good. I've never tried Greenies before although I knew about them. Eric, Fluff and Tiggy loved them! Palekana sniffed then turned to me with a look that said "You want me to eat THAT mom?!" She's usually not fussy about food so I don't know what the problem was. I'll try again later after she's recovered from the brushing.
I also tried a new product- to me at least. It's called Shed-Guard anti-shedding wipes for cats. I found it at Pets Discount when I was there buying food. You warm the wipe in the microwave and wipe the cat down with it. I used them after I had brushed the cats and it made their fur feel cleaner. It's not necessary to brush or groom before using them though. Palekana wasn't thrilled with that either.
Maybe that's why she rejected the Greenies. Poor girl.
