Grooming your cat regularly will help with his hair shedding in your home. Knowing which tools are appropriate for grooming your pet is necessary to make the process hassle-free and easier.
Your cat can clean himself but he cannot trim his nails, brush his teeth, or clean his ear, etc. That means you will have to do it for him. The basic tools for grooming a cat are a bristle brush, a fine-toothed comb, toothbrush, and nail clippers. For quick touchups, you can also use pet wipes.
Trimming your cat’s nails can help with his habit of scratching. While there are many types of nail clippers out there, using ‘guillotine’ type ones would be the best to use where there is an opening to insert the nail of your pet and a light squeeze will cut the tip of the nails easily.
There are also several brush types and combs in pet stores. You will see what they are for as indicated in the labels.
A good dental hygiene routine should be practiced while they are still kittens. Make sure to use an appropriate toothbrush and toothpaste for your pet. Any sign of illness should warrant a visit to your animal hospital Seminole FL sooner rather than later.
