I groom my cat Samson's coat every 4 weeks. He is (was) a domestic long hair but since he was a kitten, he gets a haircut and bath whether he likes it or not. He's pretty good though. He likes the feel of the clippers while he gets trimmed up - not to mention he does get his coat cut faster this way.

The only real thing he hates about the whole experience is the bath (what cat likes water other than drinking it?) and that only lasts like 5 minutes.

He never has any hairball issues because of the haircuts and baths and he loves feeling lighter and cooler and we notice that he is more alert and playful because of it so it works out in the end. |cool|
