Keep Your Feline Friend Fresh Through Effective Cat Grooming Ft Collins Colorado

By Jeffrey Carter


Kitties are usually self-cleaning. They lick and scratch until they feel clean. If there is another member of the same species in the vicinity, they help each other out. However, the problem with this is hairballs. These cause many health issues. The animal will retch and vomit to excrete it from the body. For this reason, one should take a more proactive approach to cat grooming Ft Collins Colorado. It should not be left up to the cat alone.

One should begin with an inspection of the ears, eyes, claws, and teeth. Apart from the usual ear dirt, kitties can also get ear mites. These should be treated with immediate effect. The eyes could have eye stains. With a clean wet cloth, one should wipe the eyes gently and carefully. The claws can be home to all sorts of dirt. That dirt if not properly cleaned will be transferred onto the furniture and carpets or even bed. A tooth cleaning at home is difficult. Vets offer a service to take care of the teeth cleaning.

Some kitties have long thick fur while others have short easily manageable fur. Both are beautiful but are taken care of differently. The bottom line is brushing. This reduces the amount of shedding and prevents matting. Pests and dirt are attracted and trapped tangled pet hair causing an itchy skin which makes the pet to scratch and transfer falling fur and scales throughout the home where the children sleep and eat.

For that reason, one should invest in a good brush and shedding comb. One could get whatever other implements necessary to reach the undercoat of the hair. This is especially important for the longhaired feline. Intense mats too close to the skin are hazardous to both the animal and home residents.

One cat scratch could cause a very bad infection. They are dangerous. The kitties may be cute but could get very aggressive in the face of perceived danger like a bath or stranger. A nail clipper is instrumental in keeping those claws in check. One should be careful about nail clipping. It will take a while for the novelty of nail clipping to wear off but once it does, it will be smooth sailing. It is best to handle this part after the pet is asleep or very very relaxed.

Any pet in the home should be bathed. It should be kept clean in an effort to ensure they do not stick up the place and transfer that stink to absorbent surfaces. The kitty will not like it the first time or the second. The third time will not be easy either. However, the more he or she is bathed the better they will tolerate it.

Thus, the question of DIY versus professional pet cleaning service. Handling the routine increases the bond between pet and owner. It is quality time spent together. By doing it, one is allowing the pet to practice trusting. They get accustomed to the baths and nail clipping. Soon, it becomes hassle-free.

There is also need for expertise especially when the animal just will not budge. Patience is paramount but, sometimes, frustration wins out. A professional is literally paid to be patient with the animal so why not go that route.
