AND SOME TIPS FOR KEEPING YOUR CAT BEAUTIFULLY GROOMED

Eyes - Use a soft cloth soaked in warm water to wipe away any discharge.

Ears - Check regularly. If the ears have black wax in them consult your veterinarian, as this may indicate the presence of ear mites.

Nails - There are special nail-clippers for claws that get too long. Ask your veterinarian which clippers are suitable and just how short to cut the nails.
