Instructions
Brush out the Flakes
Wrap several layers of cheesecloth around a bristle grooming brush.
Slightly dampen the brush with water.
Brush the cat gently but firmly, allowing the cheesecloth to trap the dead skin flakes.
Remove the cheesecloth.
Rinse out the cheesecloth.
Repeat the above steps until the coat has been thoroughly brushed, to stimulate blood circulation to the skin.
Continue on a daily basis until most flakes have disappeared, and then brush at least several times a week to keep the dead skin from accumulating.
