Nail trim first.

Awe hell I clip my cat down to a lion cut and she's fluffy long haired just like this one. It's not rocket science.

??? Just did(nail clippers missing) MUST keep under legs free of tangle free. Imagine hair pulling w/every step. You can very very carefully dematting

OK, Y’all talking all that like it’s so easy. Either your cat is sedated, extremely gentle/old/lazy, or some other anomaly. Try this with the avg. fat, cuddly, house cat ….. like my former fur babies. I needed to have a full grown man hold down Precious (my adorable Siamese) while I bathed, and Ms. Cutie (my fat, adorable, super lazy tuxedo cat) bit THE VET (not just a groomer, but the actual vet who studied for yrs how to hold and handle cats) because she was tired of her exam!

Their not in pain your combing them, like how we have hair falls when we comb, that’s what’s happening, those are fur falls

Maybe when she’s asleep?

This is Cutie Ringo Joy I've tried that with mine. He would wake up and give me the death stare!! LOL!

I trick my cat with treats lol. Idk if that's the right approach but it works for me lol

My cat dosent need to be brushed tho she likes it and if i dont give her it she Will give you the death stare and when theres a lot of Wind she attacks and if you fight back she Will try use claws

They love it...my cat is super calm when I brush him...like he is stoned..:)

I wish I had your cat!!! Mine loses her mind when I even pull out the comb, forget about actually brushing her.

Yeah for real that’s kinda mean of her

She let a Persian cat outside?

Finally, some common sense in a sea of ignorance. All these negative comments are coming from people (I'm assuming) that don't know the difference between a Persian's cat hair and any other cat. Their fur (let's not call it hair) is so different. Until you actually touch it and feel it don't assume you're going to be able to properly groom a Persian without a lot of knowledge and...effort. That's just the nature of the beast. No way anyone can do that and make it look gentle and easy. Good luck there pal!

hamburger

Amen to that

Someone got her on the arm pretty good!

Hhahahahahaga

Kiro Shinigami what video did u watch. She was being so rough and the kitty was growling.

Melissa Lyn reminded me of my mother yanking knots through my mixed race hair sister I'm with u

for real!!! like can one person please upload a proper video of brushing your cat so they aren't in pain and neither are you?!

@@romz11khan Or end up full of stitches or minced meat 🤨😃😾 And I have ALWAYS been tender headed. I used to cry when my mom did my hair, and I have thinner hair and my mom was always very gentle! That's one thing I can def say about my mom, she was always super patience with me. I since got locks since 2000. Easy maintenance....esp now during this quarantine, and locks are long, stylish, and cute!👶🏽👩🏽‍🦱💗

hold her by the skin behind her neck, it might seem cruel or whatever but it actually doesn't hurt the cat it just puts them in a trance, this is what I do when I have to bathe my cat if she gets really dirty or for flee and tick baths. it should keep them from moving around as much.

Mine gets mad and chases after our other cat when she is let go.

My kitty chases the brush too when i do under her neck especialy. I try to do it when shes lazy and sleepy. That helps lots.

Same reaction of may cat he scretching brush and me he hate combing in his hair

@@lizakiefer8254 just be careful not to use that hold too hard, they can quit getting air

Wolf Gypsy mine too he growls to let me know ,,,,enough

As someone who's gotten their longhair shaved many times and recently converted to brushing, I highly discourage you from shaving your long haired kitty! Start by clipping their nails. Give treats every time they meow in annoyance or fidget as consolation prize. Use the right tools for getting knots out first. Then I recommend a gentle brush, like a human hair brush. If they get upset and agressive, try to react in time to avoid getting hurt, then stop for the day and try again tomorrow. Be persistent, it could be a few weeks to gain that real trust. Positive reinforcement and respecting boundaries will do wonders. It is recommended to brush longhairs every day for easy maintenance and to prevent knotting due to the fur's static electricity, but I find every 2-3 days is fine if you're consistent about it.

I know way to rough I feel so sorry for that baby

Oh I know. Poor kitty!

Poor baby he's meowing all the way through I wanna cuddle that cat

Fay Griffiths I just commented the same thing. Shes too rough and shes not even talking to him and telling him its ok. Just hearing a soothing voice helps them. Poor kitty.

Fay Griffiths , if you go too slow, you pull the hair. Persians are fairly resilient and most love a rough brushing.

Is your cat a Persian?

My kitten has the same. I've tried to change her diet so her poops are firmer. And I trim her butt. It looks a bit strange if you look closely, but it's better than poop smears all over the floor.

Allen Hallare don't know if you've found anything, but I am just in the process of ordering a calming spray from amazon, reviews are good and I am intending to use it the way you want to. I am also ordering a detangle spray. I will repost after I have tried them. My cat is a long haired (debateable) Tortie, doesn't even like to be petted down the back, only likes the head and ruff petted and scratched on her terms. Wish me luck so I can pass it on.

patty craig

patty craig So the calming spray didn't really help as far as grooming. I guess I am too indulgent as far as her hating me. I did manage to grb herby the back of the neck and spray this www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000634IUO?ie=UTF8&camp=213733&creative=393177&creativeASIN=B000634IUO&linkCode=shr&tag=eauciuen0a-20 on one side and some mats after awhile came off. But there are many and there is the sanitary clipping that takes two to do. I am going the way of the groomer as soon as it gets warmer, she loves windows and had a respiratory thing before I adopted her last July. Probably another reason to be wary of sprays. Any way she will be having a mohawk and a fresh start for both of us, hope to use the time to get both us use to grooming. Thankfully there is a traveling groomer in the Philly area. I also use a house call vet, less trauma for all.

I think a little cannabis extract is in order.
