Does anyone have any tips/experience trimming the ruff of long-haired cats? Thor’s majestic wizard beard is getting so long it gets stuck in his mouth when he tries to groom himself; he literally cannot pull his head back far enough to release it from his mouth.
I tried using safety scissors a bit but couldn’t get good angles to do a good job. Any tips on how to hold him steady or certain techniques I should try would be appreciated!
@thepoliticalcat My husband trimmed it last year (but he did a hack job, haha) and it grew back just fine. I forbid him from doing it again, and I have been trying to be diligent about cleaning/brushing Thor's beard out after he eats. But now it's so long and fine that it's causing hairballs and he's been puking a lot, poor kitty.
@aetataureate I actually am curious about this whole system but not sure I could spend $200 only to discover it’s got too many pain points (steps) for me to operate it well. It might work for cutting my spouse’s hair tho! Dealing with all the little hair clippings are what makes it such a time-consuming chore.
@aetataureate if it actually works at sucking up the clippings AND giving a good haircut, it would pay for itself in like 4 haircuts, but I must admit I’m a bit skeptical
