How to care for your Siberian cat’s coat
It is much more convenient to raise a cat than a dog. The cat does not need to go out for exercise every day. It is enough to give it some toy cat climbing frames and cat litter at home. But it also requires careful care by the owner.
Siberian cats have the habit of licking their fur. Because the cat's tongue is rough, like a brush, they often use their tongue to lick themselves to remove dirt and comb their hair. But you can’t just leave all the care of your body to the cats themselves. Because no matter how soft the fur is, there are still places that cannot be licked by the tongue, especially for long-haired species. It is difficult for the cat to keep the fur clean by itself, so the owner's help is essential.
Moreover, if the cat is groomed manually frequently, the shed hair can be cleaned up in time to prevent the cat from swallowing the hair into the stomach and causing hair ball disease, causing indigestion and affecting the cat's growth and development.
Daily fur care can not only remove dirt and lice, prevent hair balls, combing and brushing can also help blood circulation and promote skin metabolism. Owners can also check their physical condition by petting their cats regularly. The main thing is that this is a time for owners and cats to communicate. Cats will also calm down under the caressing and whispering of their owners.
Generally, short-haired breeds should be groomed once every 2-3 days, and long-haired cats should be groomed at least once a day. It is best to start grooming after the kitten is weaned. The cat may hate this kind of caressing at first, but as long as it is done step by step every day and forms a habit, the cat will I'm happy with this.
