| Clean from whiskers to tail… |
| Cats are fairly clean animals and will groom themselves quite extensively each day, however, occasionally it is necessary to bath them… Dirt and dust can get trapped in the fur, and knotted or matted hair can keep debris lodged into a cat’s coat. A cat’s tongue is rough and has small barbs on it to help clean its coat. Bathing is needed to keep the hair a manageable texture and sometimes for odor control. Hair that is oily will mat. (See our bathing tips below). |

| The Natural Way |
| There is a lot that can be done naturally to help keep your cat clean. Regular brushing is best. Don’t brush too hard, and use a fairly gentle hand brush. You can clean your pet’s face and eyes with a soft wet washcloth as you would your own. Remember never to use human soap or cosmetics on your cat. |
