Persian cats exhibition washing

To any domestic cat who is not participating at all in exhibitions, washing is necessary. The long-haired cat (in an ideal) is washed with once a week. Whenever possible, never save on shampoo for a cat. Good shampoo costs(stands) dearly enough, but it(he) is economic. Try to use only shampoo specially intended for cats (its(her) wool is more thin and is more gentle than hair of the person). As a last resort, behind absence of those, it is possible to use children's shampoo " without tears " high quality. "Daily" washing distinctly from "exhibition", and it is natural. It has absolutely other purpose(assignment). Here your purpose is improvement of a wool and a leather(skin) of a cat. Washing helps faster loss of the become lifeless hair, improves a condition of a leather(skin), clears time that promotes growth of a new healthy wool, certainly, provided that shampoo and the conditioner which you use, are picked up correctly, in view of features of a wool of your animal.

During washing, in process cover with soap, under influence of warm water and massage there is easier branch of a dead wool, inflow of blood to a leather(skin) is stimulated.

Besides during time of "daily" washing, you do not set as the purpose "preexhibition" degreasing of a wool and do not water its(her) every possible, to put it mildly, not so useful neither for its(her) stomach, nor for its(her) wool, antistatics and fluffers, and on the contrary, carry out(spend) various improving and restoring procedures. You do not do(make) "10" cover with soap, there is quite enough of one - two. You have an opportunity to process a wool the restoring, medical conditioner which should be selected individually for each animal, depending on his(its) structure of a wool. For this purpose, before the last swill a quantity of the conditioner add in a basin with water or render in the diluted kind (1 part of the conditioner on 5 parts of water) directly on a wool of an animal, maintain 1-2 minutes and carefully rinse. As a rule, after that the wool any more does not demand additional processing by antistatic or powder, she(it) needs to be dried a towel and finally to dry up a hair drier. The important positive factor of often washing, accustoming a cat to this process that will relieve her(it) of stress before an exhibition is.

The note: After vaccination to wash a cat it is possible not earlier than in two weeks.

Exhibition!!!

If you think, that preparation for an exhibition consists only in those actions which to you should be lead(be carried out) with a cat before show - you are mistaken.

Exhibition preparation, is very responsible(crucial) - the closing stage of daily care of a cat.

She(It) begins with the first acquaintance of your kitten to water, his(its) first bathing in the age of 1,5-2 months, during which it is very important to not frighten the kid to not transform the subsequent " hot days " into heavy test for both parties(sides). Not less important and his(its) acquaintance to a hairbrush, and also education in it(him) of such necessary qualities, as geniality and trust to your hands. All these qualities take root to an animal during daily leaving(care).

So, in view of all aforesaid, the beginning of "closing stage" is a minimum of 3-4 weeks up to an exhibition.

Month up to an exhibition

During this period, you any more do not put before yourselves the purpose - to comb out a cat up to the basis. Now your unique instrument of leaving(care) - the metal hairbrush sparing her(it) a wool. Now you protect, cultivate and cherish EVERYONE hair. In the same purposes for "woolen" cats everyday use of the conditioner for stimulation of growth of a wool after a moult is recommended.

Alongside with it, right now, in case of need, it is necessary to remove superfluous arista which sometimes negatively influences appearance of a cat.

Trimming, lead(carried out) too late, leads to to that the animal at an exhibition can look like " the plucked chicken " that will lead to decrease(reduction) in his(its) estimation, and in some cases and to disqualification.

Besides right now, 4 weeks prior to an exhibition, you have last opportunity to test "innovations". Now, in the market zoological produce, the considerable choice of shampoos and cosmetic means for exhibition grooming animals at which presence to reach(achieve) desirable success much easier is submitted.

What from them the best? Certainly that optimum approach your animal. Find them only in the experimental way, getting in view of quality and colour wool of a cat.

More often, the preference is given already recommending itself to firms. Though, however, how to know?...

Therefore, if you are going to take advantage for the first time of unfamiliar shampoo for final exhibition preparation of an animal, do not apply it(him) without preliminary check. Try to wash up him(it) a cat beforehand, approximately one month prior to an exhibition. Be convinced of absence of allergic irritation and look at quality of the washed up wool of an animal.

Very important, already now, beforehand to pay special attention to cleanliness of an external surface of a root of a tail where channels of sebaceous glands (at cats) are located.

Up to an exhibition - week

And here everyday lives are ended, ahead the most responsible(crucial) period. To show the cat at all parade, she(it) needs "be "to prepared". At each factory owner the method of preparation and universal "best" simply does not exist.

All of us study, trying to achieve the best results. We taste various kinds of shampoos, antistatics, powders, etc. Sometimes our experiments are successful, sometimes - not so, in fact structure of a wool and colours our cats so are various. That is magnificent on one animal, at all does not approach another - all should be selected individually.

Be not afraid to experiment, but follow the advice(council) proved by PERSONAL experience, never before the exhibition test new cosmetics.

Exhibition washing of a long-haired cat

As it happens it is insulting, when fine, undoubtedly, the oustanding animal does not become the participant of final show of an exhibition. Being the best among the competitors, it "is unworthy" competition of beauty because of bad exhibition preparation. However, the cat - is worthy. Unwothy of its(her) owner which prepared for an animal for an exhibition, being guided by a principle " will leave and so ".

If process of washing will seem to you too much labour-consuming, and " will leave and so " appears more strongly you - powder to a cat nose. It is not difficult and very effective in a combination to a dirty wool.

The major role in preparation for an exhibition is played with washing a cat. In fact as against daily, exhibition washing more labour-consuming and multistage action and the purpose of it(him) is maximum to emphasize advantages of everyone colour, to fluff up, give volume, shine, in general, to present in the best possible way all indescribable advantages of an adored essence. How it is better to make it?

With what it is necessary to begin?

Certainly from preparation of all necessary. First of all, from the means tested by you beforehand for washing.

Process of washing will consist from is equivalent responsible(crucial) stages.

1. Preparation for washing (where to wash than to wash than to wipe, dry, comb, water, strew, splash).

2. Preparation of an animal (claws, a wool, ears). At this stage it is necessary to clean(remove) accurately from the person of a cat all sticking out acting hair, having given to its(her) person pure(clean), round the form (please, be not overzealous - leave to an animal even moustaches!)

3. The first cover with soap (the purpose - clearing of problem zones).

4. The second cover with soap (the purpose - degreasing of a wool).

5. The third cover with soap (the purpose - exhibition standard of a wool).

6. The fourth cover with soap (the purpose - to emphasize advantages colour a wool). At this stage the giving volume, shine, silkiness, antistatic properties, conditioners are applied fluff up.

7. Final rings.

8. Drying - grooming.

Now in details:

1. A place for washing. It can be a basin so deep that all body of a cat has been shipped in water. Remember, after everyone cover with soap the site of a basin very important that procedure a plum and the set of water was not too tiresome for your animal follows 3-5 rings with which should not be neglected, therefore. It is convenient to wash a cat directly in a washstand if his(its) sizes allow, in this case there are no problems with change of water. Everything, that is required to you during washing, place so that it was near at hand at you and outside of reach at a cat.

2. Preparation of a cat. Cut to it(her) claws. Accurately clean ears, having given to them desirable more round the form that they visually looked less, to pluck on them brushes (growing on the tip an ear, but not inside). To pluck bunches(beams) of a wool as "small horn" between ears (ear should be widely put!). Comb a cat a hairbrush with rare cogs for removal(distance) plica, special attention a place under armpit, a collar, trousers, a stomach demand. Accurately comb a tail. Put in pawn in ears wadded balls, in order to prevent hit there waters during washing a head. Remember that your animal is nervous also to it(him) test heavy and unpleasant for him(it), therefore is necessary be quiet and tender, not fuss, your movements should be confident and slow. Talk to a cat, do not overlook, that she(it) feels like more confidently, having a support under legs(foots). It is very good, if you have assistant who will support her(it).

3. The first cover with soap. Having put " object of torture " in capacity with water, pay attention careful and deep "drop" (up to the basis hair) all body of an animal. For achievement of the best result, follows preliminary a little (Fairy) or degreasing shampoo to dissolve in capacity with water in which you will wash a cat. Than the animal is dirtier, the solution should be especially sated. Ship in him(it) a cat for 10-15 minutes (above a surface there is only a head) and that it is maximum up to the basis to degrease hair - accurately, a metal hairbrush with rare cogs, comb a wool on all trunk under water. Further we pass to cover with soap. First of all soap the most polluted places (behind ears, a chin, paws, trousers, the basis of a tail, in the location sexual gland). At this stage, it is the best way to use means for degreasing and deep clearing of a wool. For example: specially intended for especially polluted wool and the washings up of problem zones degreasing and bleaching shampoos known and recommending of firms on manufacturing of cosmetics for animals " House An-Zhy ", " 8 in 1 ", etc. At washing a head of a cat pound a small amount degreasing super clean shampoo on damp hands to create a few(a little,little bit) foams. Carefully, up to the leather(skin) rub shampoo across a back part of a head of a cat (avoid hit of shampoo on obverse area as it not shampoo without tears). Do not overlook to apply foam to cheeks and a chin (to avoid eyes, a nose). The note: it is very convenient to carry out(spend) cover with soap heads, ear, cheek and a short wool foot dental brush. Having sustained foam of 1-2 minutes, pass to one of the most responsible(crucial) moments of washing - rinse. RULE ? 1!!! Rinse should be thorough after EVERYONE cover with soap. Do not regret some water which temperature should hardly be higher, than for your own bathing. In water for rinsing add vinegar, at the rate of 4-5 items of spoons on 10 liters waters. For light colour it is better to replace vinegar a solution, preliminary dissolved (on 1 ë - 1-2 ÷.ë.) a citric acid. It will soften water, will facilitate washing away of shampoo, will give to a wool softness, silkiness, shine.

4. The second cover with soap: besides we carry out(we spend) specially intended concentrated shampoo degreasing a wool. The note: It is necessary to remember that any washing-up liquid with addition of a lemon clarifies a wool of an animal a little, therefore as against white and others clarified colour, for sated and tabby colour it is necessary to choose the means which was not incorporating clarifying additives. Special attention besides - to problem zones.

5. The third cover with soap is carried out(spent) by the special "exhibition", preliminary checked up shampoo. During it cover with soap it is washed accurately away to a cat a muzzle (with the help small sponge or small brush). It cover with soap is possible to repeat 1-2 times.

6. The last cover with soap it is done(made) by special shampoo which is picked up according to colour an animal. Temporary shampoos or conditioners are rendered on a wool of an animal in the pure(clean) or diluted kind, 10-15 minutes in heat are maintained and carefully washed off. The note: not having experience, it is possible to think, that the shampoos intended for different colour (red, black, etc.) possess painting properties. It not so. These shampoos recover, give a saturation colour, they are intensification colors, only with directed on certain(determined) colour action.

7. At finishing rinse we pay attention to giving of a wool of necessary volume. At this stage the conditioner is applied. The choice of it(him) is very important AND INDIVIDUAL. The fine effect of volume can be achieved by means of Gel for stacking (Styling Gel) firms Ring 5. For creation of the best effect dense, magnificent and thus is a down, easy, flying wool - it is recommended to dissolve some dining rooms of spoons of Gel or the conditioner in a basin with warm water and for 1-2 minutes to ship there, losing patience, the martyr that his(its) wool has become impregnated from roots up to most tip. Concentration of a solution is very important. She(it) is selected individually, in view of structure of a wool of a concrete animal, and approbation of it(him) is carried out(spent) long before exhibition washing. After use of conditioners - do not overlook about a rule ?1 - necessarily repeated, careful rinse. At the last rinse, respecting the work and patience of your animal, rinse it(him) at once a pair of superfluous times is much more easy, than, having hurried then to wash up it(him) completely. Such washing should be lead(be carried out) 2-3 times within last week before an exhibition (an interval - 1-2 days). Last date washing is individual not only for everyone colour, but also for each animal. If you are sure, that can, keep all this beauty in a protogenic kind, it is desirable that about day of an exhibition there was an interval 2-3 days. For this time the wool will have time to get a natural kind.

8. Drying - grooming. Well having got wet a cat after washing, we do(make) to it(her) "stacking". Drying up a hair drier, we give to a wool the necessary form, emphasizing features inherent in breed. Important, during drying to not leave on a body of a cat of any wavy strand of wood. We begin with foot. We lift (dense fine-tooth comb or a brush) a wool from below upwards, directing a stream of air on the basis of a wool. Drying up her(it) in such mode, with the help brush we give to paws the most filled form. Delaying a wool a hairbrush that there was no wave, we dry a collar, giving to it(him) volume. The special attention should be given "shirtfront" and a soft wool in area ear. In these places the wool persistently does not wish to be straightened. For acceleration of process of drying, on slightly damp wool it is possible to put a few(a little,little bit) powders (only for light colour). Accurately combing dense fine-tooth comb, we dry a muzzle, giving volume to cheeks, a forehead, a chin. Back it is combed against a wool, lifting its(her) hair drier from the basis of hair. In the same way we give volume to sides. Wool on a stomach and trousers it is delayed downwards, straightening her(it) on all length. Accurately using a hairbrush with rare cogs, we dry up a tail. Antistatics can be used both on damp, and on the dried up wool (according to recommendations of manufacturers). Important to dry a wool completely. Staying damp sites, will reduce your works on are not present. It is better to powder light animals at once, especially critical places, it will a little protect them from pollution. Surpluses of powder then can be blown a hair drier. On the termination(ending) of drying, drip eyes drops to remove(take off) irritation. I think, they will not prevent also to you:)

Final preparation of a cat is carried out(spent) in the morning, in day of an exhibition. A cat "comb" against a wool, processing exhibition powder, antistatic, and exhibition scum - any means. Assisting to give to a wool of your animal volume, the special shine, working antistatic, in general, giving " last stroke " before an exhibition, and necessarily preliminary tested on your cat. The wide range of these means is submitted. The main thing here - feeling of a measure. Remember, the wool should be alive, soft to the touch and to fall, instead of to stick out, as rigid, over-powder, over-varnish a tow. You are alive?!!

On cleanly washed up floor lower(omit) your beauty unearthly, preliminary having cleaned(removed) everything, that can help to get to it(her) an original form. Success to you, victories and pleasant impressions. And even if at an exhibition of the judge will not estimate in the desirable image type of your child, his(its) preparation will necessarily make on them impression. And admiration of spectators will be the deserved reward to your works. And you with good reason can tell to the cat - you the finest, you are the bettest. Because it is necessary for it(her) and consequently that it is the truth. In fact for each of us, our child the best. After the termination(ending) of an exhibition necessarily it is necessary to wash off from your champion all with what you "spoiled" it(him) within last week. Use the restoring conditioner.
