vacuuming the cat
Cinnamon is not afraid of the vacuum and will sit there when I vacuum
right up to her. I got the idea to try the soft brush attachment on her. As she is getting older she is grooming herself less and has a lot of loose fur. She let me use it on her. She had a look on her face like what the h**l but didn't run away. I might try it again. Ann |

Ann I have a friend whose cat (RB) went crazy when she turned on the vacuum cleaner. Not because she was afraid of it, but because she *wanted* to be vacuumed! She loved it. It got to be difficult to use the vacuum cleaner for actual *cleaning* because the cat wouldn't get out of the way Jill |

Ann In Rusty's (RB) last year his fur got very matted. It took me a lot of work to get the mats out. He was 15-16 years old at the time. A vacuum, even if he allowed it, won't help. I used my fingers to detangle the mats or failing that, I very carefully snipped with a pair of scissors designed for pets. Rusty hated grooming while he tolerated teeth brushing. -- Winnie |

Ann Lucky! My cats hate the vac so much I had to stop using the Roomba. It was making them upset every night when it turned itself on.

Ann If she allows it, it's a good idea. Boyfie hates the sucky monster, I try to only use it when he's out. I only have to open the cupboard where I keep it and he's off upstairs, and when I get upstairs with it, he has nowhere to go, which panics him. I get his loose hair off him with a Zoom Groom. An amazing rubber thingie with long massaging fingers which somehow gets all the loose hair out and traps it between the fingers. He loves being zoom-groomed - he will even offer his tummy, like Oh please, do it some more.. Tweed |

Ann My brother's family had a cat who LOVED being vacuumed. (As soon as he heard the vacuum motor, he'd come running from anywhere he happened to be, and insist upon it!) |

The ZoomGroom is great, but I found an even better hair-remover. http://www.petzoom.com/self-cleaning-brush I got three sets of three from woot.com for what that site is charging for one.

Moe Lester (RB nine years ago yesterday) loved it. It's a rubber cylinder with a bunch of protruding prongs - the same rubber - around the circumference. Never have seen one since somehow acquiring the attachment. Art |
