How and how often do you all groom your cats (including combing/brushing coat, bathing, trimming nails, brushing teeth, cleaning ears, etc.). I never really even considered doing all these things because the cats we had when I was in high school were kind of left to themselves. We fed them and took them to the vet, but my stepmom never really even played with them, much less brushed them or anything (they were indoor/outdoor). And the most we ever did for our dog was brush her. The idea of brushing teeth, trimming nails, etc. is pretty foreign to me!
I recently started combing Slinky...and he loves it! I'm working up to being able to trim his nails and brush his teeth. But I'm wondering...is all this necessary? If so, how
often? Also, what about bathing? The owner of my natural pet food store says she uses wipes instead of bathing her cats. Is that sufficient?
I don't want to take this too far and torture him with unnecessary things, but I also want to make sure he stays healthy. So what are your thoughts?
