hi everybody. worrying about grooming my cats seems awfully superficial when others are worrying about health and surgery and bringing their loved ones home from the vet safely...our prayers and thoughts go out to those humans and kitties!

i am hoping somebody can give me some advice about grooming long-haired cats. i've had miko for nearly 6 years but i've never had problems with her fur until lately. she's getting dreadlocks on her back and on her haunches. i try to trim them with scissors then brush them out with a comb, but she hates it, and i can't seem to get her to sit still long enough to brush out the knots. any ideas? she's sweet as pie until the brush comes out!

thanks everybody! happy almost friday!
