Sticky Buds


What would be the best way to get those little sticky buds out of a long haired cats tail. This is a cat who does not particulaly let you groom him for long either, you have to catch him whilst hes eating as it is the only time he is happy.
Thanks

Re: Sticky Buds


Can you 'tease' them out of his coat wearing a rubber glove?

Re: Sticky Buds


Is there a cat grooming product you could spray - sort of like a conditioner to make the coat silkier and help release the stickies?
I realise it would have to be very gentle, as puss may ingest it whilst grooming, but maybe there is something?
