I don't brush my cat enough. My cat's never really liked brushing, and always attacks the brush after a couple strokes. Someone told me that if you use a rabbit brush, it hurts less so I tried that, same result. But maybe I'm using the wrong brushes entirely? Anyone want to teach me about brushes? My goal is to make her swallow less hair. She overgrooms and the vet told me that her hair was probably irritating her digestive tract (he found a lot of hair in her poop). I don't really have a problem with her shedding on stuff, though, but maybe that's because she's eating all her hair...
I was using brushes like this:
(The rabbit version was like a mini version of this kind of brush)
And now I have a Furminator but I can only ever get like a small hairball quantity of fur off before she starts attacking everything.
I think she has sensitive skin, because I see a lot of dry skin flakes whenever I brush. Which is really only a few times a month, but I don't want to make her bald (since right now I only have the Furminator).
She's a short haired cat, by the way.
