my cat is just a year old. i had hoped that she would naturally like being groomed as i got her gently used to it from a very young age. Sadly she ain't crazy about it. She doesn't like her underside being groomed so i have had to admit defeat and get a groomer round to clip her underside/armpits as mats are developing. I thought, going by youtube, that all persians were seriously docile when it came to grooming, mine turns into a killer when i attempt to do her underside . To add to the fun, whilst she doesn't mind me grooming her outer back/head etc, she has a habit of always lying down on her right hand side so i find it hard to groom there (hence a few small mats have appeared on the fine undercoat). anyone else with a touchy longhaired cat which has resulted in mats?
