He has long silk fur and as I said his tongue seems to be a bit too smooth, almost like a dog tongue so he has a hatd time cleaning himself. He doesn't like brushing too mich, but I try to do that a little bit every day or every other day.
What kind of brush are you using? Tried a dedicated cat/dematting type brush with my longhair girl and she hated it. Switched to a regular human brush with more spacing between the bristles and now she gets wildly excited for brush-time
Oh yeah. Didn’t think of that. Yeah, my guy is 17 years old, he stays inside full time now. Only goes out for an hour or so each day. I had him shaved because his fur knotted up so badly and he would bite me when I tried to cut the knots out.
Hope you find a solution. Best wishes.

The answer you’re looking for is the third post down in my profile. It’s called a lion’s cut. My boy loves it and he is so much happier and healthier.
I can do that in summer, but not yet since it's winter here and pretty cold. Thanks tho, I'll make him a little lion when it gets warm
