Special combs are available to help remove mats.
If you trim the mats out with scissors, be very careful not to cut the skin. If an animal is badly matted, clipping the entire coat may be necessary. Return to menu. Make the experience as pleasant as possible for the cat by being gentle but persistent. Do keep the nails trimmed, check the teeth for tartar and examine the ears, eyes, anal region and skin while grooming your pet.
