The Importance of Grooming for Exotico Savannahs
As a proud owner of an Exotico Savannah, you understand the importance of keeping your pet healthy and happy. Grooming plays a vital role in maintaining their overall well-being. Regular grooming sessions help not only in keeping their coat clean and beautiful, but also in preventing various health issues. At Bright Eyes & Bushy Tails, we are committed to providing you with the most comprehensive grooming guide for your Exotico Savannahs.
Grooming Techniques for Exotico Savannahs
Brushing and Coat Maintenance
Regular brushing is essential for Exotico Savannahs to maintain a healthy coat and prevent matting or tangling. You should invest in a high-quality brush suitable for their specific fur type. Brush gently and in the direction of hair growth to avoid discomfort or skin irritation. This not only helps in removing loose hair, but also stimulates blood circulation and distributes natural oils throughout the coat.
Bathing and Shampooing
Bathing your Exotico Savannah should be a part of their regular grooming routine. Use a cat-friendly shampoo that is mild and gentle on their skin. Avoid using human shampoos or products that are not formulated specifically for cats, as they may cause allergic reactions or dry out their skin. Remember to rinse thoroughly to remove any residue and prevent skin irritations.
Nail Trimming
Trimming your Exotico Savannah's nails is crucial to prevent overgrowth and discomfort. Use specially designed cat nail clippers or ask a professional groomer for assistance. Be cautious not to cut too close to the quick, as it may cause bleeding and pain. Regular nail trimming also prevents scratching-related issues and keeps your furniture and surfaces safe.
Ear Care
Cleaning your Exotico Savannah's ears regularly helps prevent ear infections and mite infestations. Use a gentle cat ear cleaner and cotton balls to remove dirt and excess wax. Avoid inserting anything into the ear canal to prevent injury. If you notice any redness, swelling, or discharge, consult your veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.
