Thanks for your nice comments. I can tell you one thing... Fister certainly didn't like to be brushed when I first tried. It took a long time and a lot of patience, but then he got addicted to it.

I'm in the habit of laying the brush on his scratching post and it's next to it I brush him, and he definately knows where that brush is, and shows me the way, should I forget. LOL!

The bottom line is... with patience, you can do things you never dreamed of.
