That's a good point about when they get older. I rub their paws every once in awhile - a holdover from when I was trying to start a claw-trimming routine with Kershach, and I heard it was a good way to make them calm about being handled that way - so I think I would catch any incorrectly growing claws. But it's probably worth it to at least figure out how to accomplish trimming, like you said (and also [personal profile] cypher's point about kneading might be enough reason for me to do it now).

For brushing, I have a Zoom Groom (though it works better for cleaning the cat tree than grooming the cats, so that's what I use it for) and a Furminator. I'm not sure what the rotating-bristle type is?

Thanks!

This is the name brand rotating teeth brush (we have another brand, but the technology is the same). When I brought Sebastion to the vet with a mass of matted tangles, we were using the Furminator, and our vet suggested the Untangler instead. Both our fuzzballs seem to enjoy it more than they did with the Furminator, and it seems to do a better job keeping and removing matts (when we've gotten lazy >_>;).

Oh, I see. I haven't yet had to deal with any mats (besides the kind that can be clipped off without harm), but I'll keep that in mind for if/when I do.
