My Exotic Shorthair Marley is the most gorgeous kitty in the world (not at all biased )!!!
His flat little face and big round eyes are too cute! We just love the little guy to bits. He had a rough start to life with some health issues , but is now 9 months old and has really come good - thank God!!
Anyway, when Marley drinks, because of his flat little face, he gets water all over his chin and neck. He then comes to me and meows, which loosely translates to "please dry my chin, mummy!"
Sometimes before he gets his chin dried he has a few bites of kibble. His chin touches the kibble also, and he ends up with yellow stains on his white chin and chest.
The stains don't come out with kitty shampoo and he gets little specks of dust on his chin which are stubborn and very difficult to get out too. The area is quite sensitive as the skin is very thin there.
I've tried using one of those bottle dispensers that hang on the cage for rabbits and guinea pigs, and if I take away his water bowl he will use it, but I don't think it releases enough water
Does anyone have any experience with this? How do I overcome it?
Any suggestions welcome ! My beautiful kitty deserves a clean and dry chin!!
Mr Wet Chin is super cute when he comes up for a dry, but I hate seeing the yellow stains on my beautiful baby!!!
