My cat Gizmo is a long haired part Maine Coon cat. His fur knots up really bad even with brushing him daily. We have him shaved when he starts to get knots however to shave him he has to be put to sleep in order for the groomer (who is also my vet) to shave him. I am worried about having to have him put to sleep everytime he knots up, is there anything that anyone knows about that might help keep him from knotting up so badly? We brush him every day, doesn't help.
I've seen cat de-tangler but I'm worried that it might be harmful if he licks it, has anyone used this type of product or know anything more about them? I know it hurts Gizzy to have these knots and I would love to prevent them anyway I can. Thanks in Advance!
