Thank you. I love the way he looks. He even callico's in the dark. If you don't turn a light on you can easily step on him or run into him. He gets real black in the dark.

Have you heard of this kind of cat Gato siberiano?Cats are seriously smart, absolutely!
I have found that keeping the fur in the areas where the mats typically develop shorter seems to help.
I still have to take blunt-end scissors, cut some of his mats and then work them loose the rest of the way with my fingers. Also, I've read that corn starch, worked into a mat and left for several hours, can help the individual strands to loosen.
People will comment to brush frequently - my guy still gets them. His diet is good and he's healthy but the Persian influence (He's mostly Turkish Angora) has blessed/cursed him with cottony belly fur. I can look at it wrong some days and it mats LOL.
Other than trying to keep susceptible areas a little shorter, I'm not sure if there is anything other than keeping up with them as they occur....not helpful, I know

I think that just means "Siberian cat." 
Siberians are supposed to be relatively allergy safe...
I see him in water devices. Does he likes water?
If so simply learn him to swim or take a shower once a tenday.
Should help much.
Also an air purifier usually helps.
There are other tips too for allergists whom are cat owners.
I think so too, I believe gato means cat, and siberiano would be siberian
Hi - here is a thread discussion. Post #4 gives a link to an article that is referred to a lot in other threads. I think that's the only one on TCS that refers to human allergies.

Ok thank you that helps alot. Yes he loves the water even though he yells no all the time, but once he is in he lets me wash him aand loves it. He mainly likes showers instead of baths.

He's is unique to me out of all the cat's i have had, even my 6 toed cat named Stuff. Smokie has very long wiskers which i have never seen before. I am cleaning house now and he just following me around and watching me. He has been listed as my ESA animal.
Thanks. She's part Siberian
