How do you get GIANT knots out of a cats hair??

We found a cat about 6 weeks ago and we put up signs, listed her online, went to four shelters and put in a found cat form and no one has claimed her yet. So we been taking care of her and my kids adore her and I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the knots out??? They are huge!!! I am afraid to cut them out.

Cutting them out may be the best way to get rid of them. Brushing might help some. Trim them a little at a time, then brush, then trim some more. Sometime the cats get so matted that they have to be shaved with one of those Wahl hair trimmers like the barber uses. Good luck.

You should cut them. They will grow back. Thats really nice what your doing!!!

Introduction

Grooming your cat regularly with a brush or comb will reduce the occurrence of mats in the fur. Unfortunately, many cats wind up with matted fur because they hate to be groomed. Here's how to deal with the problem, which occurs most often in longhairs.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You'll Need

Manicure Scissors

Hair-ball Treatment

Kitty Treats

Steps

1Step OneAttempt to remove the fur mat after the cat has eaten. Cats tend to be more relaxed after meals.

2Step TwoAdopt a calm and soothing demeanor as you approach the cat. Have your manicure scissors hidden in your pocket as you pet the cat.

3Step ThreeOnce the cat is relaxed, try to work out the fur mat with your fingers. Pull out the scissors if that doesn't work.

4Step FourSnip down the middle of the fur mat, far from the skin. It's quite easy to snip the skin accidentally on longhaired cats, so work carefully.

5Step FiveSlowly work apart the fur mat with your fingers. Snip away a little more if necessary. Reassure the cat in a soothing voice as you snip. If she becomes upset, stop and come back to the task later.

6Step SixOnce you've worked apart the fur mat and it's clearly away from the skin, cut it off.

7Step SevenReward the cat's cooperation with a kitty treat.

8Step EightIf the cat has several fur mats, remove them at separate times. The cat will quickly lose her patience after you remove the first fur mat. Build trust with a gentle approach and kitty treats to make future encounters easier.

9Step NineBring the cat to a professional groomer if the cat is unapproachable, if the fur mat is in a delicate area or if the mats are extremely tangled.

10Step TenPurchase a hair-ball treatment at a pet store to help your cat eliminate a troublesome hair ball. Or feed the cat butter or a can of oily sardines.

Introduction

Long haired cats can be stunning when they are well maintained. When they aren't taken care of, however, that long hair can become a matted mess that cannot be combed. In that case, cats have to be trimmed. Some people elect to trim their cats because of the heat or in order to cut down on shedding. Whatever the reason, trimming your long haired cat can be a good thing for you and kitty.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You'll Need

Sharp scissors-hair cutting scissors are best

A trimmer

Towels

You may need a prescription from the Vet

Steps

1Step OneStart your cat's grooming regime when he's a kitten. Teaching kitty to sit still while you cut his claws and give him a bath will help to prepare him for getting his first trim. If kitty fights you too hard and will not be still you may need to visit the Vet for some tranquilizers in order to safely trim him.

2Step TwoTrim with the scissors first. Use scissors for all the places the trimmers can't get close enough to trim. Cut the long hairs around her ears, snipping a little at a time near the inside opening of the ear only. Trim the long hair around her anus to help her to keep clean.Trim around each nipple on a female cat and all around her vulva if she is due to have kittens soon. This cuts down on infection during birth and helps the newborn kittens to find their milk source better. If your cat's fur is matted, cut the mats out with scissors - don't try to run the trimmers over the matted places--you will make a mess.

3Step ThreeUse the trimmers for the body of the cat from his neck to the base of his tail. Turn the trimmers on for a moment or two and watch kitty's reaction. He may need time getting used to the loud noise before he'll settle down. If he's afraid of the noise, take your time. Many cats are afraid of the trimmer's noise and will need to be tranquilized in order to sit still enough to be safely trimmed.

4Step FourLay the kitty down on a towel to prevent a huge mess later. Start trimming at the base of the tail, trimming a little at a time so that you don't go overboard. Better safe than sorry. If you really want to trim more closely be very careful not to nick the cat's skin. It's sometimes hard to judge where the skin is if the cat's fur is really long and especially if it's thick.

5Step FiveTrim carefully from the tail upward going toward the head. Most groomers keep the hair on the cat's head longer so don't shave that. If you really think the hair on her head needs a trim, use the trimmers or scissors to just trim the longest hairs. Don't cut the hair on her face. Make sure to comb kitty good and really look at her after you trim--before you trim any more. You should be able to make kitty and yourself more comfortable with a careful trim.

How do you get GIANT knots out of a cats hair??

If the knots/mats are big and close to the skin, DO NOT try and cut them out. Cats' skin is very thin and you are liable to cut it. Mats and knots are harmful because they are constantly pulling on the skin, which hurts and can eventually cause nerve damage. My advice is to take the cat to the groomer's to be clipped. If she's REALLY bad, take her to the vet to have her sedated and clipped. Needless to say, once her coat is knot-free, maintain it and brush her once a week to prevent future mats!

How do you get GIANT knots out of a cats hair??

Cut them out. If you really don;t want ot try that, or if shes not going to hold still enough for it, try puttion corn or vegitable oil on it. I have horses and when their manes get knotted into huge knots this is the ONLY way I've been able to get it out sometimes. It will take time and patience though. Just dab some on the knots, it will make the hair slippery and make it easier to take them out. Good luck!

Could it be said that single women over 30 without kids never married are always a NO?

It's just not the same with women it seems. Unlike guys, if they are even half normal, attractive, or sane ... they get knocked up and let out a few rugrats before age 30. I mean, it's true right? Don't even start with that career woman "hair shorter than mine" crap. That, too, is a fricking worthless woman as a mate.

Some women cant have kids, and is that really a bad thing, I WISH I could find a woman over 30 with no kids. And as for marriage, who needs it. Its is a death sentence to relationships, I think. Too many people get married just to get divorced a year later.

That defends on a person,I was 36 yrs.old and spinster and my late husband divorce 2 x thinks I am the best wife he ever had.I work very very hard to be a good and loving wife. I took care of his sick dad until he passed away,and I took care of him until he passed away 6 yrs.ago.

Now that I am over 40, the dating pool is much better. Women usually have some clue what they want, out of life, by the time they are 40. If they have kids, the kids are adults, and on their own. If they don閳ユ獩 have kids, the desire to have them is long gone.

i have a daughter and i use motion it's yellow with purple tops you can gets hair conditioner a pomade that is better than regular hair jell shampoo and conditioner you can get it at any Walgreen's store or sally beauty supply. try it yes she is to young for a relaxer you should blow her hair out using a rolling brush designed for a blow dryer or take her to the salon and let them blow her hair out it cost like 15 dollars. don't relax her hair because she's alittle to young and that will change the texture of her hair and if you do relax the hair and if it stays dry and neglected it will fall right out so that something to think about, I'm black and puerto rican i have very good hair my daughter is the opposite, I've been using motions for her and sometimes taking a flat iron to her hair to straighting it. it works but think twice before you use chemicals in your daughters hair.

90's kids television show?

I am trying to think of this television show that I use to watch as a kid, and it's really bugging me because I can't remember it. I also don't remember much about it...

I remember some girl hosted the show, with blond hair and brown eyebrows.

And something with these little monsters or something, a blue and pink one...

That's ALL I remember, sorry for the lack of details. But 10 points are up for grab!

90's kids television show?

sounds like KidSongs, it was hosted by two young kids, Alexandra Palm was the girl, she was blonde, and the boy was Christian ( cant remember his last name), the blue creature was Billy Biggle, later on there was a pink one ( cant remember her name).

What is a Spanish fly? remember those white crosses from Mexico that made your hair stand up?

You young kids don't know what I'm talkin about but before meth there were white crosses that the truck driver used to haul in here from Mexico by the 55 gallon drum.

spanish fly was a nickname for a drug used extensevly in jails and mental hospitals i will let you figure out the rest if you can.

What is a Spanish fly? remember those white crosses from Mexico that made your hair stand up?

Spanish fly doesn't actually come from a fly. It is made from the cantharides beetle, also called the blister beetle. The name comes from an intense irritant they generate as a defense mechanism. The beetles are collected, killed, dried and powdered, and the result is called Spanish fly.

Cantharides, being a natural inflammatory agent, can burn the mouth and throat and cause abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea and kidney damage even in small doses. It also strongly irritates the genito-urinary tract, and sex is one way to calm that itch. The stories regarding medical application of cantharides would be listed as "not to be believed," except that they are true. In 1752 a Frenchman was prescribed 2 drams of cantharides for a fever and in the next two months bedded his wife at least 87 times. Another man with a similar prescription "knew his wife", as the Bible puts it, 40 times in one night.

As little as one thousandth of an ounce of the active chemical in cantharides is sufficient to cause kidney failure and death, making it one of the most dangerous substances ever to be associated with sexuality. It is classified medically as a Class One poison and a blistering agent. Fortunately, it is also illegal nearly worldwide.

I'm not too sure what Spanish Fly was but the white crosses? My grandfather actually used to take them for his asthma. Don't know what they consisted of but they sure helped him. (grin)

I love the emo fashion any tips on how to dress and hair tips p.s. im not a scene kid?

Hi,

OK well first you want to get some skinny jeans and maybe straight legged jeans - available in all retail stores like topman/urban outfitters etc.. theyre pretty popular and you can purchase them in different colors. Get yourself some girls jeans too. There's no problem with that - the majority of people wear 'em.

Buy some online too if u want - eBay is your friend X]

there are plenty of other sites you can buy emo/scene clothes from as well. Just look around.

Some converse and vans slip ons. Old skool nike dunks are for the hardxcore scene kids amongst others but personally i prefer converses and vans. wearing them with skinny jeans looks hella ace.

Then purchase some tight band t-shirts if u want and hoodies - striped ones and darker colors like black, white, grey, red etc.. wear it with studded belts or plain colored leather belts and a belt buckle. Get ur lip pierced too maybe but it's up to you. Maybe some plugs too. Snake bites look kinda awesome.

Wear some eyeliner or 'guyliner' as they call it.

Don't over do it though. Softer shades like light brown/pink/purple and blue are kl.

For hair get it styled - grow out ur bangs (fringe) over your eyes and grow out your sides and maybe back if u want but people tend to stick this bit up. and then dye it if u wanted to as well. black, blonde, red, brown, blue - any color will do, remember to have a pair of straighteners too! - An ESSENTIAL for emo/scene hair plus get some decent stylish wax/gel/clay u can get and all that etc...

but don't just do it because you want to 'fit in' or look the part.

i can't be assed to write anymore because you'll find ALL the inormation on this website I'm about to give you. It gives you lots of photo's of hairstyles and stuff like that plus lots of advice on clothes, hair, and lists of clothing websites for emo/scenesters.

I'm sure you'll like it. Hope I was helpful. enjoy =D

You're a boy, right? I suggest growing your hair to a reasonable length wear it's long and swishes across your face. I know this kid with Ear length, flippy black hair. His sidebang really sets it off though. I suggest tight, black shirts with lots of bands and stuff. Don't overdo the emoness, but this is a great way to start off!

im scene, trust me on this, i have such good taste in hott emo/scene guys, ok

1.tight skinny jeans(even if u think you'll look gay just, trust me)

2.wear a lot of skater shirts and wear many hoodies, especially black ones:]

3.long pointy hair, just go to a place and ask for a scene cut.

4.vans shoes

you're good to go:]

I love the emo fashion any tips on how to dress and hair tips p.s. im not a scene kid?

Skinny jeans, tight shirts, studded belts, Converses or skate shoes. Grow your hair out a little%26amp; dye it black. Cut it so that your bangs are the longest part of your hair, put them in front of one eye. You should dye just the bangs. Any color will work. Blonde, red, blue, w/e. You should straighten it too.

Does anyone remember a movie where a kid with no hair put some wierd paste on his head?

The stuff he put on his hair worked but then his hair grew too fast. He had to have someone in school behind him cutting his hair. There was a scene early in the movie were he is wearing a wig playing soccer and some bully ripped it off. That's all I can remember other than it was from the 1980s

The "peanut butter solution"..

I have brown hair&brown eyes&my bf has orangey red hair &green eyes wat color of hair/ey

no one in my family has red hair they all have brown hair w/ blue or green or brown eyes, and tyler%26amp; his mom has red hair but all of his sibilings have brown or dirrty blone hair.....

I have brown hair%26amp;brown eyes%26amp;my bf has orangey red hair %26amp;green eyes wat color of hair/eyes will our kids have?

The kids will most likely have brown hair and brown eyes, with maybe some red highlight in their hair.

My mom has brown hair and my dad had reddish hair (grey now hehehe) and I have brown hair that shines reddish in the sun.

I have brown hair%26amp;brown eyes%26amp;my bf has orangey red hair %26amp;green eyes wat color of hair/eyes will our kids have?

You can't accurately predict the coloring of your children by the coloring of the parents.

I have brown hair%26amp;brown eyes%26amp;my bf has orangey red hair %26amp;green eyes wat color of hair/eyes will our kids have?

moslikly brownish amber eyes. And light brown/dark strawberry blonde hair. very cute either way.

I have brown hair%26amp;brown eyes%26amp;my bf has orangey red hair %26amp;green eyes wat color of hair/eyes will our kids have?

There is really no way to know. Eveything is fifty-fifty... a coin toss.

Unless you find out which physical traits are more dominant in your families.

I have brown hair%26amp;brown eyes%26amp;my bf has orangey red hair %26amp;green eyes wat color of hair/eyes will our kids have?

Maybe neither. Both of my parents have strawberry blonde hair and green eyes. I came out with blue eyes and ash brown hair. Your childrens traits will not just come from the dominent genes expressed in you/your boyfriend, but may come from recessive genes that are not expressed but passed on. (i.e. my blue eyes come from several different sources on both sides of my family that my parents didn't inherit but were able to pass on. Same goes with my hair.)

I have brown hair%26amp;brown eyes%26amp;my bf has orangey red hair %26amp;green eyes wat color of hair/eyes will our kids have?

Well he's more likely to have brown eyes and brown hair but you never know. My dad's family is Japanese so they all have dark brown eyes and black hair while my mom's family has either green, hazel green, or brown eyes and red or brown hair. But I have a mixture of both because I have black hair and light brown/orange eyes. So it really just depends but since there's so much diversity in you and your bf's family traits, then you'll most likely be suprised because he could end up having anything.

How do u defrizz hair?

I use a hair straightning iron, it doesnt really take me so long, bout 15-20 minutes. but get a good one, not from walmart..that maxi one is the one i have i think...look on ebay too, anyways it makes it nice and thin feeling and really shiny and manageable, and when you wash your hair it will go back to normal though.

How do u defrizz hair?

make sure you use alot of moisturizing shampoos/conditioners when you wash your hair. that will keep the frizz a bit down. if its bothering you that much, just invest in a REALLY good hair straightener like Sedu. i have one and it works AMAZING. it costs alot but it will save you tons of money in the long run.

How do u defrizz hair?

my hair is really frizzy as well, and I'm still a kid too (12). The only thing that works for me is use conditioner and leave it in for a minute or two then rinse it out. Also, u can buy leave-in conditioner or citre shine anti-frizz spray. :) Both can be bought at H-E-B.

How do u defrizz hair?

You have to buy a hair straightener with ceramic paddles, not plastic. They can be quite expensive, but they work magic! You don't need products if you have a great flat iron. Mine was $200 and it is fantastic - you can get a great one, though, for under $100. Just get ceramic - you can even ask for one for your birthday or another gift holiday. Sedu and Bionic are great brands! :)

How many people treat their pets like they are kids?

I do. I get up and cook for mine, bathe them, comb their hair, take them for rides, and take them to the park. I like toy breeds the best because you can carry them around.
