People with cats - HELP!!!
Okay, got a question.. as you know (or don't!!) I have 4 cats.. all adorable, but one is a long haired cat (Norwegian Forest cat). Now Tom is about 8 years old and very set in his ways. He was also abused as a kitten so I have to be quite gentle with him, the problem is because he doesn't go out his fur gets matted in the winter, I'm starting to brush him every day, but he hates it; he bites me, scratches me and hisses at me, that doesn't really bother me, but I know it stresses him out. What I'm doing at the moment is having a bowl of cat milk there whilst I brush him so he associates me brushing him with milk, but I was wondering if anyone had any better tips on how to brush him with the least possible amount of stress.
Any tips????
