How Often Should You Brush a Long-Haired Cat?
Long-haired cats should be brushed daily. Brushing them regularly helps prevent mats and tangles from forming in their fur.
Brushing a long-haired cat every other day is also acceptable if you can't commit to daily brushing, but less frequent brushing may lead to more matting and mats will lead to problems.
I had a cat who formed a very hard mat in her coat and would not allow a brush to go near it. She would try to bite or scratch when that thing was pulled, even by a brush. So with the assistance of a helper, who held her down, I just took a pair of scissors and cut the thing out. I wasn't going to torment her trying to brush the mat off. Her coat grew out nicely after that.
Establishing a consistent daily grooming routine at the same time each day is recommended, as cats are creatures of habit and enjoy regularity in their lives.
Kittens should be introduced to brushing early on to get them accustomed to the process.
Be gentle and patient during brushing sessions, and stop if the cat shows signs of discomfort
or even annoyance.
Use the right tools like pluck brushes, combs, and natural bristle brushes for effective long-hair grooming.
Whatever you do, whatever routine or style of grooming you follow, make it fun and pleasant for your furry friend and you will both enjoy it a lot more!
