marsh's got long sinky coat, so we handled a few dingleberries in the past. Even now, i pick a few off him, but rarely.

The best thing to do is trim his hair on the bottom, leaving about 1/2 inch to 3/4th. I do it with scizzors, myself, but marsh's a pretty cool customer, he doesn't mind. I wonder if with a more active cat, it woudl be a problem.

NEVER use water to get them off. you'll create a big mess. take a pair of scizzors and just cut the hair in that place to release the dingleberry. that's it.

Poor Rosie!
I guess the klingons can't resist her soft, fluffy coat.
Good luck keeping them at bay!
