    Default Sort of Odd Question: Feline Friends

    So, I checked the forums and didn't find any information on this subject.

    Having just received my first badger brush and wanting to make a stand for myself to keep out on the counter, I was wondering if anyone has had any issues with their pets, particularly cats, going crazy and tearing the thing apart.

    I could possibly see my cats doing this.

    Any thoughts?

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I think it would depend on the individual feline. To be sure if you have and handles made of bone or ivory watch out. Cat's love to chew on the stuff.

    Cats respond well to negative conditioning. I suggest you give your cat a full-body shave, or perhaps just a trim around the edges, with the badger, your favorite soap/cream, and a well-stropped straight. Of course you may have to get creative in getting the cat to hold still... Anyway, afterwards your cat will look good, smell good, and best of all, will never come anywhere near the bathroom or your badger again!

    I used to have a cat who would hunt anything that moved or even just sat there. I wouldn't have trusted him near a brush

    Having spent a week at my mother's for New Years with her new kitten, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that it was not my badger brush I was concerned about, it was where I put my feet in the bathroom that worried me. There is a real need to improve the marketing for kitten nappies IMHO.

    Non of our cats have any interest in my brushes, the bowl of water when I'm honing that's something else!

    Smell that? You smell that?

    What?

    Mitchell’s Wool Fat. Nothing else in the world smells like that.

    I love the smell of Mitchells Wool Fat in the morning.

    The smell, you know that fresh soap smell, the whole shave den, smelled like…....victory.

    Someday this badger war's gonna end.............
