Hey Cherie,
Just to clarify, when you say "contact lens solution" you mean saline,
right? There are contact lens solutions that are cleaners and you
wouldn't want to put that in anybody's eyes! My Timmy has fairly long
hair and since he's begun shedding, he's got some small mats
developing. He hates to be brushed. Even when I try to sneak some
detangling activity into our snuggle sessions, he'll walk off in a
huff. Is there a detangler that you can use on a dry coat to help with
this? I can just see myself trying to blow dry my cats! How did you
get them used to this? Crimeny, 5 long haired cats! How do you find
the time to keep up with their grooming?

Sheila,
I have 4 Persians and 1 Himmie, hair mats are easier than people
think, close shave should do it. I put about 3 inches of water in the
bath tub, with a dixie cup I hold the cats under the front legs and
pour it on them, I use cat shampoo, towel dry then, lightly blow dry
and comb....I comb all the long hairs daily as well as clean their
eyes with contact lens solution. Hope this helps.
How can people just get up and move away from their pets.
Cherie
