I have been combing Sylvester with a comb discussed on here awhile ago, thin teeth on one half and wider ones on the other half, and he is still starting to develop mats again! I am so upset, I don't want him to get matted like he was last Winter and then we had to catch him and get him shaved in April, he did not respond well to that and neither did I! My wife said that some long haired cats will still get matted despite combing, that we'll have to work on him when he isn't upset and nervous and today he is because we had visitors and that freaked him out for some reason, but we'll have to try to get him and comb these out but he only tolerates it for so long if at all, then gets upset and runs and avoids me for awhile and I hate that, I really hate that....I wish I could let him know that I am only doing it so we don't have to go through that again, and I'm sure they are no fun and can pull on his skin.
Ugh......I thought I could avoid this.....
