Scissor-style nail clippers designed for cats are ideal for clipping adult cat claws. When trimming nails, watch for the pink quick in the nail and just clip the white part that hooks down. This will help prevent your kitty from snagging any fabrics or catching your skin when jumping onto your lap for a snuggle or attacking their cat tree in play.
METAL COMB
CZARINA SIBERIANS takes delight in maintaining our kitties coats. We will never recommend using a brush on your Siberian for anything more than a glorified gentle massage. Siberians have a triple coat that is designed to withstand the extreme climate of sub-Arctic Siberia. Their coats can become matted or even pelted if not routinely combed down to the skin.
CZARINA SIBERIANS highly recommends investing in high quality metal tooth combs designed for long hair cats and poodles. A wide tooth comb, such as the Show Tech Professional Combi-Comb 28cm, is ideal for running through the coat daily to check for any snags and for combing the tail so as not to lose any actual tail hair. Show Tech Professional Greyhound Antistatic Comb 19cm is a great daily grooming comb for the full body, avoiding the tail so as to keep that as floofy as possible. Chris Christensen 7.5” Fine/Coarse Greyhound-Style Buttercomb #000 is currently discontinued, but any Buttercomb by Chris Christensen will help create a flawless look for showing as it glides through the coat smoothly like butter. Quality combs for your Siberian are worth the initial investment and routine use. Combing gently right down to the skin to prevent painful snags, mats, and pelts developing in that luxurious all-weather coat.
DENTAL HYGIENE
Animora Cranberry Dental Gel is a toothpaste for cats you can start by using with your finger as you acclimate your kitty to allowing you to brush against their teeth. Start this process at as young an age as possible, though it is never too late to start taking good care of your kitty’s teeth.
Once your kitty is comfortable with your finger brushing against their teeth, you can upgrade to the RyerCat Dual Sided Cat Toothbrush. This is designed to be unobtrusive and acceptable for the relatively small mouth and high sensitivity of cat mouths and cheeks.
CZARINA SIBERIANS is a huge advocate for always giving your kitty lots of praise, encouragement, and high-value treats when creating a new healthcare routine, such as brushing their teeth. Please contact us for suggestions on how to improve your success in providing your kitty with good dental care at home.
