Do you need to groom an Ocicat cat?

Yes, you need to groom an Ocicat cat, but grooming is straightforward. Weekly brushing keeps the coat healthy and cuts down on shedding. In addition to brushing, all cats should have their claws trimmed every two or three weeks. Check your Ocicat’s ears regularly for dirt, debris, or wax buildup. Use a veterinarian-approved ear cleaner and a cotton ball to gently clean the outer ear area (avoid inserting anything into the ear canal). Cats are also prone to periodontal disease, so brush their teeth daily.
