This is my Herpes, one of my two wives. She hated people except for me and my late Mother. And she's 16. (BTW, I'm gay, ok?)
@ridor9th Have you tried olive oil? take a bit and rub it at the base of the mat and after a few days the mat should fall off on its own.
@WhiteRose it worked?
@WhiteRose I'll try that.
@ridor9th Re-apply if after threeish days it doesn't fall off. Some say use a syringe to get to the base/skin but you can just use your fingers if you wish(what i do)
@WhiteRose What about her ass? so much hair on it - it needs to be trimmed - I'm single. When I hold her and try to cut some matted hair - she would bite. So what to do?
@ridor9th cutting can pull the skin at times that is why I use the olive oil and let it fall off personally bc their skin is sensitive and I do not wish to aggravate it.
@WhiteRose Olive oil do cause the mated hair to fall off?
@ridor9th Yes, however it is best to keep up on it. for example do not let the mass to get huge and then try to use olive oil. make sure you are checking for mats and while they are smaller try to catch them. It is much easier to get rid of that way.
@ridor9th This is much easier then struggling with your cat or having to take in constantly. her behind if she is touchy that may be different. it all depends on how well she allows you to touch her. if she allows you to be able to at least get to the area to do then try if she is going to be difficult then well you may still want a groomer to handle her.
@ridor9th I do with my pip.
@ridor9th base of the mat-near the skin
@WhiteRose not sure if it is she/he - so I'll say this - s/he is so gorgeous. One thing I hated the most about fluffy cats - these MATTED thing - I have to take then like 2-3 times a year to have her trimmed. I tried so hard to keep 'em tidy ... I failed always.
