I have a 6 year old mixed breed cat named Uncle Louie. I have had him since he was a kitten. He has always been lazy with his grooming habits.....he won't wash himself except for his paws and his behind area. He loves to be brushed with a slicker brush. He always has an oiley look to his fur that gets on my nerves. I even took him to a pet groomer a month ago for a bath figuring if he started out fresh...maybe he would change his ways and keep himself cleaner. The women that was unfortunate enough to wash him said he was like a tazmanian devil in the wash tub swinging in all directions...LOL...The bath made no difference at all to him, he continues to be a slob about himself. I have wet him with wash cloths figuring he would wash off the water on his fur....NO Way
he would just walk around wet all day until he air dried. Anyone have any suggestions...or do I just write him off as being a slob?
