The ideal brushes for the Nebelung cat’s coat

For brushing the Nebelung cat, we start with the wide-toothed comb to untangle any knots, then move on to the slanator, brushing first the belly, then the paws and finally the back, that is the area where there is a greater loss of hair.

Finally we proceed with the rubber glove for cats, in order to eliminate the residual fur still present, taking care to pass it gently also on the tail, from the base to the end.

Hygiene and cleanliness of the Nebelung cat

It might seem unnecessary but to complete the hygiene of the Nebelung cat, a bath cannot be missing.

The Nebelung cat, despite having a wonderful medium-long coat, should only be washed if strictly necessary.

It is necessary to use purely specific products for the hygiene of cats.

On sale in specialized stores you can find products such as: cat shampoos, soaps and creams.

Even the drying of the Nebelung cat’s coat must be done in a delicate way, trying to avoid noisy hair dryers that can scare the animal.

The use of a soft towel will allow you to gently pat the fur without irritating the cat’s skin.

However, there are practical and quick alternatives to avoid bathing and do it only in cases of extreme dirt.

These alternatives are the cleaning, soaked and scented wipes suitable for cats and the dry foam shampoo that does not require water.

As for personal hygiene or the cleaning of the ears, mouth and nails, must take place in although every day to prevent the animal can get sick or suffer infections, secretions of the cat’s mouth diseases or even injured with his own nails.

Precisely for the nails we must make a separate speech, since it will not be an action that the cat will let you do with tranquility and could injure you or get hurt, so it is better to contact the grooming experts or the veterinarian.
