Question for Ragdoll breeders or owners.
Do you get your Raggie groomed at all?
I'm thinking of getting Kizzy groomed because of his long "butt fur"
(by groomed, I mean a slight hair cut)
If he has a soft stool, it ends up getting caught in the long fur on the back of his legs, which I refer to as butt fur.
Also, for those that regularly brush their Ragdolls, what kinds of brushes do you have?
Kizzy is not overly fond of being brushed, so I end up doing it in parts. Usually when he's laying down resting, I'll be able to do a quick brushing. I find that his fur gets "scraggly" looking under his chin, armpits, butt fur and on his lower belly.... once I brush it, its as beautiful as the rest of his fur
I have 2 brushes:
an undercoat rake like this: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...500_AA280_.jpg (just bought it a couple days ago)
a slicker type brush like this: http://www.petplanet.co.uk/shop_dev/...cker_brush.jpg
are these sufficient for him (keep in mind, he's not a show cat or anything, I just like seeing his fur all brushed out and he doesn't sit still thru a grooming session).
Thx.
