I had no luck using a brush on Don Juan. Then, I got a Love Glove (tm), a canvas mitt with a rubber groomer on the palm. HE LOVES IT! He will go in the kitchen, look at the cupboard where I keep it (with toys etc.), and meow until I get it out and sit down to brush him. I think it reminds him of his mama licking him when he was a kitten. This is good, as I think he may be developing a sensitive tummy in middle age.

Zerlina does not like being brushed, but I'm making a little progress with a similar grooming mitt with smaller "bristles." She will let me hold her and gently pet her with the mitt.
