Why Your Cat Needs to Be Groomed Too!
When people think about groomers, they often think about poodles with their special haircut. They probably also think about all of the dogs that need to get shaved short on a regular basis. They may also think about stinky dogs who need bathes regularly to stay clean.
Cats are definitely not their first thought! However, just like dogs, grooming is an essential part of their care.
Still unsure about making an appointment for your cat to go to the groomer? Here are some reasons why you need to schedule an appointment today.
Clean their ears and trim nails. Cats are always grooming themselves, though they can’t get their ears done or trim their own nails. If you don’t clean your cat’s ears regularly, he or she may get an infection.
If you don’t keep up with nail trimming, they can get really sharp. Even if your cat is really friendly, they can get you with their nails, so they need to be trimmed regularly. Long nails are also bad for your carpet and hardwood floors. Also, if you don’t do their nails, they can actually grow into the pads. Not only is this really painful, but it also isn’t always easy to clip when they get that bad.
Grooming helps with shedding and hairballs. All cats shed. They grow winter coats and then these need to be brushed out regularly to help them shed.
