Answer 7

First of all why do you want to shave your cat? Does your cat have mats in it's coat? My long haired cat just, GreyMoon, had mats in her coat of which were down to her skin. I had to bring her to a groomer's. I would never had shaved her on my own. You could really hurt your cat. I guess I just don't understand why you want to shave your cat. Cat's need there fur for a thousand reasons. I'm sorry that if I sound concerned or am misinterpreting your question and why you want to shave your cat. I'm just an animal lover who has 4 cats of myself.
