It’s true that cats groom themselves all the time. But long-time cat parents know that cats also experience matting of their fur, shed a lot, can swallow hairballs, tend to have gunky ears and even an occasional ingrown toenail. Bed Bath & Beyond carries cat grooming tools to make grooming a pleasant and welcome experience for both you and your cat. When should cat grooming start? If you haven’t already started, the best way to introduce your cat to grooming is to start early by touching your cat’s ears, mouth, paws. Then very slowly get your cat used to a light massage before you start brushing its coat. We recommend picking a time when your cat is relaxed and even satisfied after a meal. Why is grooming important? Brushing your cat’s hair is important because in addition to removing dirt and dead hair from your cat’s coat, it also removes flakes from skin and stimulates blood circulation. This results in an overall healthy coat. In order to so, check out Bed Bath & Beyond wide selection of cat brushes to get the job done.
