I get it man, my last cat lived to 20 as a long haired himilayan. Last 2 years of her life basically she couldn't keep up w/ cleaning herself so i'd find myself brushing out her fur daily. I saw your earlier post and was being half sarcastic. I like grumpy old kitties at any rate.
Bro, do you have any advice on old, long haired cat maintenance?
She seems mostly fine, other than the fact that she is pissed off she is in a new place, but I don't think she is cleaning herself that well.
Any advice would be appreciated.
No good advice, just brush em and keep their hair from clumping. Occasionally you gotta bathe them and well that's just awful no matter how you do it.
Wipe her with a slightly damp washcloth, especially areas that are hard to reach, like her head and neck. Brush her with a soft boar bristle brush, plastic or metal ones are too rough.
Cats don’t do well with changes in home or routine, she’s just not adjusting well, which is normal. The important thing is that someone is caring for her. She’ll become comfortable with you in time. Then she’ll love you and forget about her old home.
soft boar bristle brush
That is a really good suggestion, I have only ever brushed cats with the metal ones before, but she already seems to have some sort of dandruff/dermatitis, so I was worried about irritating her skin, but a soft brush would work perfectly.
She is a really good cat, she never hisses or tries to bite/scratch me, she just yells like occasionally, like she is pissed off and confused. I don't blame the old girl.
