Mr Tom and his Shadow still come over to get brushed. I use a small wire pet brush to remove the burrs and give them a good once over. If they had it their way I would spend all day brushing them. At least the matts on Mr Tom’s belly are down to just a couple small clumps under his arm pits. And I know I did this to myself, working so hard to get them accustomed to the brush. Now if Momma cat would let me help her, although of the three, she does the best job grooming her long fur on her own.
