"Brushing your cat is very important. You have to keep the knots out of the hair. And Persian kitties get a lot of knots in their hair if you don't brush. We have two different brushes. We have the stiff slicker brush. And then we have the mat splitter that splits the mats. This helps to get, the mat brush that gets the mats out. But this helps really gets the mats, when you find a tangle. And it doesn't hurt the cat. They might not like it. Kitties don't like anything they are not in control of. And you go over.

I am just blocking him from being able to turn around and bite me. And that?s the way you brush your cat."
