Hi all.... I just adopted a persian cross last night, the previous owner has sadly let her get extremely matted (and I mean EXTREMELY) the whole of one side of her body is just solid matt, and the other side has odd clumps here and there. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what we can do?? We were thinking of shaving her (you know, the lion cut!!) but we're not sure if we could do this ourselves or take her to a groomers, or even if it is possible with such bad matting?? She is very friendly and very comfortable with being handled but I don't know how she'd take to being shaved?!?
Her fur is sooo soft and beautiful its a real shame to see her in this state.
All suggestions welcome...
