scissor-girl asked:


My 4 year old Maine Coon has developed very very bad mats on her tummy. They are very close to the skin. She is very skittish and antisocial and I know that taking her to the vet would be an extremely stressful experience for everyone. So any tried and true home remedies would be much appreciated. Thanks!

She’s not a longhaired cat, but her fur is longer towards her rump and on her back. I’ve tried using a wire brush to work through the mats but she won’t tolerate that for long. I’ve also tried using scissors to cut out the mats, but she won’t let me do that for long either. What can I use that won’t hurt her?

My cat is 10 years old and he pees on my dog’s bed and the bathroom mats but never anywhere else except to the litter box. Why does he keep doing this and how do i stop him?

I brush her everyday, and give her a bath monthly. I have tried not brushing so often and not bathing so often and giving some kind of oil pill that is suppose to make thier coat more silky but, no matter what she always gets massive mats in her arm pits between her front legs. I went on vacation about a month ago and, when I got back she was so matted she could barely walk and we had to take her to the vet to get sedated so the mats could be cut out because they were so close to her skin.
