Hi Diane,
Thank you for the suggestion, that's a good one.
To all of you who trim - you must be part magician, because as soon as I tried to focus on Bea's backside, she wanted to know what I was looking at and would turn around, as if to say, "Silly human, my face end is on the other side!" She was really very concerned with my sanity and as a result several snips of hair were taken nowhere near the target zone. We'll keep trying.

Blessedly, we have mostly shorthairs plus one fairly fastidious
longhair, so I haven't had to test this, but I would think something
like a light cooking oil would help -- it would probably soften up the
clumpies, not dry any tender body part out, and not be harmful (and
marginally helpful with hairballs) for the cat to clean off later.
