Excellent post! How far east do ya get?
I show CFA, but tried a few TICA shows, wanted to see how the other half
does it, mol, and learn a few things. I was at White Plains NY, Allentown
PA and Lancaster PA. Met some very nice people and made some new
friends. 
Thanks for the info on the vinegar rinse, just learned about that at the
White Plains show, but not how to actually do it.
Other things I have learned over time, Jerob shampoo is very good, and its
color cordinated, black for black, red for red, etc. Haven't tried this yet,
but from showing horses, I know this works, use the essence of purple for
white. In the horse show world, its called Quick Silver, its purple, and it
makes the white so brite, ya gotta wear shades, mol. I have a palomino and
her white socks, mane & tail were brite brite white. Looked into the safety
of QS for cats, its a no go.
Use Ice on Ice for a finishing spray, no build up, just spray a light, very
light mist over the cat, its made by Chris Christoper something. Also
learned from a prof groomer, to use the metal comb by Chris.
Rinse, rinse, rinse, is the key, and rinse some more.
Velvet is SH, and this applies more to the LH's, sigh, major project to get
them bathed, dried and groomed, is use the dryer with the ion's, and use
the not hot setting, and on low speed, for us, we blow against the fur.
Don't remember seeing you, mol, but I would have been in the LH Tabby
division. Be glad to help you with anything, hope to see you at a CFA
show some day. I will be at Middletown NY, the end of March. |  |  | |  |
