Talk to your vet about the best shampoo and conditioner for your cat if you plan to bathe her. A bath gets a tremendous amount of loose hair off them! As soon as the bath is done, comb out her coat and then make sure she gets dry quickly. You won't believe how a cat will lounge around with their soft, clean coat. While bathing her don't get her face wet. For some reason many cats will tolerate getting their body wet but their face is off limits.

In lieu of a zoom groom or other cat specific brush, a good boar bristle brush (Fuller Brush or any drug store) quickly becomes a cat favorite. We had a family cat who would take the brush and hold it with her paws while she rubbed her chin on it. She didn't need us! This brush will collect a lot of loose hair without irritation to her skin.
