Thanks again!
Where in Canada are you located? I am a groomer maybe I can help you find one that is good with cats.
I would recomend getting him shaved and then starting over with brushing. Most cats do hate being brushed especially when there are matts. Try and get another person to help you hold while you brush or the other way around.
