Do you trim the fur...

[Freedom]

I have more than enough trouble getting the nails trimmed on 7 cats each week ; I sure don't need to start trimming fur too! Glad to hear it is OK to leave it as it is, since I do anyway.

Saturday cat chores take over 45 minutes now, not counting time spent chasing the last one or two. Trimming nails, cleaning ears, administering petromalt, brushing teeth, brushing coat (to try and end with something pleasurable!)

On my 2 current 'furry footed' felines I don't trim the hair, since it seems to stay put under the feet, not sticking up through the toes so it has a neat appearence. However years ago with my longhaired Manx cat, I did trim his 'toe hairs', as his stuck out between his toes and all over the place. lol

I LOVE furry cat toes!!!!!!!!!! I wish all my kitties had them .... but just my Coons and long-haired kitties do!

No,I don't trim my cats toe tufts either. I like them long and furry. Both Storm and Sky have them.

I think that I read some where that Maine Coons have the long toe tufts so they can walk better in the snow. I'm not sure if this is accurate or not.

That's right Tracey!

I never touch the toe floofs!

Thats what I was thinking but Hank dosent go out so that wont be a problem. And being a kitten he lets me touch his feet , I'm getting him used to it early in life. Hes really good about it too, plus I love his feet they are so soft and just so cute I love touching them.
