kitten initiation
Here is lovely Leela from Manchester, who has just experienced her first groom at 15 weeks old.
She has had her nails clipped for the very first time, and has enjoyed a gentle brushing session. Leela was given the chance to explore the tools (a good sniff, pawing and some chewing !) before learning she needed to settle down to be brushed / combed.
Leela is a British Short Hair (British Blue) and at the moment her hair is quite short. However, as she grows this will become a dense coat, which will require brushing out to avoid matting. The earlier a cat / kitten is introduced to being groomed and it becomes part of the normal routine, the better for all concerned.
